Title: Peggy and PJ and other dream duos
Post by: David W on May 17, 2006, 11:01:53 AM
Been thinking about the Peggy and PJ project and realise how much I am looking forward to seeing the show. It got me thinking what other duos would I like to see including one FC member and one friend of the band.

A combination that I think would have been great, andf who knows it could stil happen, is:

Swarb and John Kirkpatrick, I think they could have been a precursor to Spiers and Boden with the fiddle/squeezebox axis.

Any other ideas?

Chris and Tom Leary. Especially if Tom was persuaded to play guitar as well as fiddle.

Simon Nicol and Beryl Marriott - check out The False Knight on the Road on Simon's Consonant Please Carol.  A whole evening of similar things would be fun.

Peggy and PJ have just finished an interview for the Brolly. Very jolly it is too.
They're really looking forward to the Scottish gigs, following a blinder at Rugby Roots.

Cheers,

Jules

Ric & Gordon Giltrap was/were a good pairing.

Chris & Simon Mayor (or Hilary James)

Peggy & Rick Kemp for all you budding bassists out there

I'd like to hear Ric jazzing it up with a good keyboard player - Huw Warren, maybe.

Peggy & Maart - lots of multi-instrumental possibilities there...

All good ideas which has set me thinking.....especially about the two above....one half of each duo, maybe? we'll see.

Nope... and I don't much care to either as I am having a Power-Sulk about all the nasty spiteful things that people are saying about banjo's

Anyway... give me Ry Cooder & David Lindley over Head & Shoulders sponsored, c-r-o-c wearing scratchers any day

....and yes - I'm looking for a fight  >:(
