More of a summer tour then. Thanks for the info.

Shame she's not going anywhere near me - maybe she could add more dates? Saw her singing with Richard Thompson in Basingstoke a few years ago - still superb. Didn't she do some recording with/for Rega?

I'm the messenger, it's Christine saying a 'Spring Tour' Winker

Just check the link for updates to new gigs and she will probably venture to the West Country.

RT & CC on the same bill would be worth seeing Cool

Saw her a couple of times at our local arts centre...

Once with most of the Blues Band which was a bit dull sadly, then on her own, just her and guitar (and stories!) when she was excellent.

Yes she did a record with/for Rega, the process was analogue from start to finish and very good it is too.

She was actually singing WITH him when I saw them, better than Richard and Linda!

Rupert, thanks for clarifying. Seeing Richard & Christine together or solo is money well spent. They put the 'Great' in 'British' singer songwriters Smile

Interesting observation which I would second. I saw her on her own at Salisbury's Arts Centre where she was quite captivating. Then saw her a year later with the Blues Band and I didn't even stay for the second half. I don't think it was Christine who was to blame though.

I'd like to see her solo again (or with Clive Gregson, of course, but that would be like hoping to see a Beatles reunion!).
