Yeah this was really good. Impressive how they reproduced the songs so well with just a four piece band. They sound so layered on the records I didn't think it would work so well. Great musicians.
 
It was her cover of Don't Make Me Over that won me over

She played this last night and it was terrific. I didn't know it but knew it has to be a cover. Just looked it up last night - lovely song. Great gig too btw.[/QUOTE]

Yeah fantastic stuff. Seems to have been a good few of us there.

I was put off slightly by a couple in front of me. The girl spent the entire gig doing that mournful style cuddling into her bloke, with her face pressed into the side of his neck (and not looking at the stage)... for the entire gig! The blokein fairness, looked a bit non-plussed

The original is one of my all time favourites. The song writers (Burt Bacharach and Hal David) came up with the lyrics when, she shouted/ cried "don't make me over man... accept me for what I am" at them, after they told her that her contract was up. It went on to be a massive hit.
