BIG HAND

FLAT OUT ON THE FLOOR PLAYING A TRUMPET  DIRGE SUITABLE ONLY FOR A FUNERAL IN NEW ORLEANS,A MAD JOCK WOUND HIMSELF UP TILL HE LED THE CHARGE OF 'BIG HAND' INTO THE NEW VENUE AT 'THE ELEPHANT'.
ONLY DEAD FOLK COULD RESIST THE RIMSHOT SKANKIN TUNES OF 'BIG HAND' AS THEY RIPPED UP THE DANCEFLOOR. LEAD VOCALS FROM THE DRUMMER ENHANCED BY THE GUITARIST WITH A VOCAL STYLE REMINISCENT OF THE BLOKE IN UB40,OR MAYBE HIM FROM FINE YOUNG CANNIBALS,BASS PLAYER JOINING IN AND RUMBLING THROUGH,ANYWAY IT ALL ADDED UP TO GREAT SOUND.
A  SMALL LINE UP FOR A SKA BAND,YOU COULD LOOK AWAY AND SWEAR THERE WAS TWICE AS MANY UP THERE. ONE GREAT TUNE FOLLOWED ANOTHER  AND NO ONE THERE WANTED THEM TO STOP PLAYING......COME BACK SOON LADS.
