Here at Bleeding News I quite often
find myself lying awake at night, thinking ‘whatever happened to
that lovely 1970’s Saturday night sex-symbol of the TV family game
show ‘the Generation Game’, Isla St Clair – you remember her? –
the one with Larry (shut-that-door!) Grayson. Well, thanks to
a call I received from my good friend and Bleeding Hearts drummer
Gary Hunt, I can now get a good nights sleep and tell you all,
that Isla is alive and well, singing anti government protest folk
songs!
Seems Isla was pretty star struck when she met up with the Hearts at the Northampton folk fest! I asked Gaz how it went down for the Hearts playing at a folk fest? “Well”, said Gaz, “We’ve got a fiddle player, so we must be a folk band! But, as a great man once said ‘don’t judge a book by its cover, unless you cover just another’!”. Mmm. I was losing track of what Gaz was saying, so I thought I’d put a different angle on the question. I asked Gaz how the hearts had managed to get a load of old folky’s so pumped?! “Well”, said Gaz, “We started with Democracy. It’s always a good song to start a gig with, and it was so heavy after Isla’s set, I think the whole field of about 10 people took three steps backwards when we came on stage! |
Luckily lots of them already had their
finger-in-the-ear, though and by about our third song we had the
place dancing! All in all we had a great day, and I got Isla’s
phone number!!!”.
