CD Launch: Kai Hoffman: Do It While You Can @ Ronnie's Bar.
(Review by Lance.)
Ann Alex reviewed Kai Hoffman's latest CD enthusiastically - click here. However, just in case she was working for "The Sisterhood", I decided to check out the Launch at Ronnie's for myself!
As we waited for the doors opening I noted, across Frith Street, a blue plaque to no less a musician than Mozart. Little did he know how close he'd got to the big time!
In the upstairs venue known as Ronnie's Bar, the wine was flowing and '50s rock and roll was coming from the speakers. Kai was being sociable in a figure hugging black satin dress that looked good and was au fait with the music.

RIP Terry Lightfoot.
Lighfoot was a key figure in the 1960s Trad boom hovering around the periphery of The Charts with True Love, King Kong and There is a Tavern in the Town.
He also appeared in the film It's Trad, Dad.
Terry Lightfoot was 77.
Rest in Peace.
