The Houghton Weavers; Charter " Theatre, Preston; April 15th v ■


A SHOW of non-stop music and humour to keep folk smiling is in store when the Houghton Weavers play Preston. T h e Y e a r 2000 is e x t ra sp e c ia l for the

their television debut on the BBC's talent show "We'll Call You" and within months the group had its own show, "Sit Thi Deawn", which ran for a total of six se r ie s. And over the past 25 y e a rs the group h a s appeared on television and radio, a s well a s on stage. Rauco u s traditional tunes and hauntingly


beautiful ballads will ensure the Preston audi­ ence has a wonderful evening's entertainment in the c ap ab le hands of the band. Current members are: Jeff Hill, a musician since he left school, who has toured Jap an with his own band and supported legendary vo ca l a r t is t Glenn Campbell; S te v e Millington, the key­ board, b a s s guitarist and o c ca s io n a l a c co r ­ dionist; lead singer Tony Berry and David Lit- tler, who is well-known for his mastery of the guitar.

Godfather of Blues, formed the Bluesbreakers in 1963. With well over 45 albums to his credit, Mayall's former side men include Eric Clap-- ton, Mike Fleetwood, John


McVio and Peter Green himself. Green meanwhile is a for­


mer founder member of Fleetwood Mac and a man responsible for writing such classics as "Albatross" and


"Black Magic Woman". Previously Green has been hailed as one of the truly great innovative guitarist of


our time. Next month, alongside


Mayall, he will play the first concert in a 31-date tour before coming to Man­ chester for the second gig. ® For box office details ring 0161 9079000.
