Cadogan Hall. Sunday 19th September 2021
There was rapturous applause when Ralph walked onto the stage partly, I’m sure, for the relief of finally getting to a live gig but mostly for everyone’s appreciation of the man after what’s been going on for everyone (and him) over the past year or so. It was a two hour set with a short interval and included a grand piano.
His voice, playing and the sound in the venue were all spot on. Songs included:
First Song
Grande Affaire
Sylvia
Easter Lilies
Naomi
Close Shave
Gertrude and Alice
West 4th Street and Jones
Clear Water
A kiss in the rain
The girl on the Jersey Ferry
From Clare to Here
Fear of Flying
Ferryman
Encore: Streets of London

Ralph at the Apex, Bury St.Edmunds took me back to when we first saw him appear on a stage, slightly nervous but after a couple of songs both he and the audience relaxed. The Hill of Beans album was aired throughout, together with many stories and tales from Ralph. The atmosphere was lovely and after all we and Ralph have been through to be at a live concert was magical. Highlights included incredible guitar work on 'Hands of Joseph' plus an amazing introduction to 'Clear water' when he said I need to look at this again during the interval and play it in the second half which he did and it was beautiful!   |

This might be the wrong place, but I just watched Ralph on YouTube in concert doing Dav(e)y Graham's 'Anji'. He did something new with it, a key change and then back again, I think, which was marvellous..

The London crowd at Cadogan Hall last night just loved to see Ralph so relaxed on home turf. Such a lovely evening. Songs from across the years on piano and guitar plus a few songs from Hill of Beans album. The National guitar got an airing too. Met up with Martin Driver and Chris Bates before the show. |

I was excited to see they were playing in Tavistock, but in the time it took me to ask a few friends if they wanted to join me, it had all sold out!
