Roger Daltrey and band live at the Brighton Centre 22.6.Roger Daltrey CBE (born 01.03.44) is an English singer/songwriter and actor, known for being the frontman and lead singer of The Who ‘After The Fire’ gets a very vibey accompaniment from Jody inverting an impressively long rain stick. These days, of course, you would stand out more by not having any tattoos. Roger explains that when he was a lad you were discouraged from getting tattoos, because “the police will be able to recognise you”. I haven’t heard it for years, and it’s splendid fun, performed in a sparse arrangement of voices and dancing guitar arpeggios. ![]() ‘Tattoo’ is a slightly less well known track from 1967’s ‘The Who Sell Out’. The hook is punctuated with big hits by Ben on the kit and percussionist Jody, who is whacking an absolutely enormous kettledrum. It’s a lovely song, and beautifully performed. Of course it’s ‘Giving it All Away’, a Top 5 single taken from the first solo album, back in 1973. We’re told that the next song originated in Brighton, written by Leo Sayer and Dave Courtney, who is apparently in the audience tonight. ![]() Roger Daltrey band live at the Brighton Centre 22.6.22 (click pic to enlarge!) It is a slower and more reflective piece. ‘Jericho’ is from the earlier ‘Love And Murder’ collection, which is amusingly described as being “a family album”. Steve lives there too, though when pressed he admits to being originally from Hull in Yorkshire. She is from New York City, which is obvious from her accent. Leslie has a good line in between-song banter, which comes in handy whilst tuning. The opening number, which we’re told is new, is a brisk and rather enjoyable piece of bluesy folk-pop. He also adds some impressive backing vocals. She introduces herself and accompanying guitarist Steve McEwan, who launches a catchy riff on a red semi-acoustic with a fairly dirty sound. On stage she sports a patterned dress and a jumbo acoustic, and has a harmonica clamped in a holder. She supported The Who on some American dates earlier this year, and has continued to the UK with Roger. Her album ‘If You Can’t Say Anything Nice’ was released in 2020, right at the start of the pandemic, so doubtless it’s good to have the opportunity to play the songs live. Tour support comes from singer songwriter Leslie Mendelson. Leslie Mendelson live at the Brighton Centre 22.6.22 (click pic to enlarge!)
