In grateful memory to Gary Brooker (1945-2022)
Gary Brooker’s Christmas party at Working Mens Club in Chiddingfold, Surrey UK,
(Remastered Audio)
This weekend's uploads pay tribute to the wonderful
Christmas concerts that Franky and Gary put on for many years in the
1980s /90s on a weekend in the run up to Christmas in Chiddingfold, Surrey.
Gary's band NO STILETTO SHOES formed the backbone of musical guests from their circle of friends.
Omnipresent was the immense joy of playing, often old material from their past.
Thank you Franky, for allowing us to be there and experience Gary's more private side".
