Even more bizarrely, its worth pointing out that the first pic is actually from the same gig!
Great, great gig. Been listening to him all day in work. I still a compilation of his early stuff - tho it sounded almost didley-aye based on some tunes i didn't recognise last night :)
He was so fab. Coulda done without his fans tittering at every slightly duff note, or when he mentioned how much he loved his dad. I bet he does, even if he does slag him off in song.
Rufus is still looking for a fella. Think if you broke his heart he'd write a whole album bout ya?
Posting on old entries is maybe a bit pointless, but I found this regarding the daddy song (Dinner at 8)...
"When I recorded it, I rang my dad and said, 'I wanna put this song on my album but if you think it's too much, I won't.' Without even hearing it, the first thing he said was, 'Rufus, I've written so many songs about so many people that whatever it is, I probably deserve it'. So that song was to atone for many sins."
