THE LINDISFARNE STORY
The Lindisfarne Story
Chapter 6 – No Time To Lose
With a sound distilled from folk, blues and beyond, Lindisfarne burst onto the international music scene in 1970. Memorable melodies, sweet & sour harmonies and gutsy instrumentation delivered with an infectious Geordie swagger, soon cemented Lindisfarne's reputation as a formidable musical force. Hit records, sell-out tours and international success were the inevitable results.
It was the songs that hit the spot with the fans. Lady Eleanor, Winter Song, Meet Me On The Corner, Run For Home and many, many, more are still performed all over the world.
Founder member and drummer Ray Laidlaw and former front man Billy Mitchell tell Lindisfarne's roller-coaster story with tall tales, memorable music and of course, scurrilous gossip.
Chapter Six puts the spotlight on the group's debut
album 'Nicely Out of Tune'
'The best debut album by a UK band this year' New Musical Express – 1971
It was 'Nicely Out of Tune', a sparkling debut crammed with classic songs, that alerted the music industry and fans alike to the Lindisfarne sound and paved the way for their chart topping second album, 'Fog on the Tyne'.
A five decade career followed, fuelled by unforgettable songs and a joyous approach to live performance that proved irresistible to fans far and wide.
A TV documentary, 'Alan Hull - Lindisfarne's Geordie Genius' broadcast in 2021, highlighted the regard that many other musicians had for Lindisfarne. Sting, Peter Gabriel, Dave Stewart, Elvis Costello and many more put on record their admiration for Alan, Lindisfarne and the music.
Ray Laildaw and Billy Mitchell have made music together since they met in their teens. Billy was right there during Lindisfarne's formation and became their front-man for eight years in 1995 following the sudden death of Alan Hull.
Join Ray and Billy for a celebration of Lindisfarne's music and memories, laughter and loss with The Lindisfarne Story – Ch 6. 'No Time To Lose'.

JOHN SHUTTLEWORTH: RAISE THE OOF
RAISE THE OOF
with John Shuttleworth
Radio 4 favourite, comedy legend, and ‘the 42nd best reason to love Britain’ (The Telegraph) JOHN SHUTTLEWORTH, is back with more hilarious stories and songs performed on his trusty Yamaha organ (with built-in auto accompaniment!) In RAISE THE OOF John celebrates 40 years in showbiz. Yes, it was 1985 when he met TV’s Clarinet Man - next door neighbour Ken Worthington who came last on New Faces in 73 (Tony Hatch crucified him!)
“When I met Ken he was eating a CurlyWurly” recalls John, “although initially I thought it was a packet of sparklers, so I gave him a wide berth”, and the rest, as they say, is hysterical!
“ Actually, I feel rather calm” muses John, “although after forty years and still no chart success, perhaps I should be slightly anxious. My wife Mary says I should get a proper job, but there's not time - I'm about to retire! Besides, Comet - where I used to demonstrate audio equipment - no longer exists. As for the sweet factory in the Rotherham area where I worked as a security guard in the 1980's - that’s now an Axe Throwing Centre. Oof!"
But I'm still posting off my songs (on cassette tape with Dolby so it's not too hissy) to cutting edge pop acts like Chris Rea and the Lighthouse Family, plus I'm still being booked for nostalgic singalongs at the local hospice (for petrol money only) so we have every reason to celebrate my long and illustrious career. Do come along and join me in punching the air, and helping - in an orderly and controlled fashion - to RAISE THE OOF!

US (DUET)
Us is a tender duet danced by two men. It was created in 2017 for BalletBoyz and is set to Keaten Henson’s music.
AN AMERICAN IN PARIS (BALLET)
The Royal Ballet celebrates Wheeldon’s extraordinary success in musical theatre by performing the ballet scene from his Tony Award-winning musical An American in Paris. Set to Gershwin’s jazzy melodies, the musical is inspired by the 1951 film of the same name starring Gene Kelly and Leslie Caron. The musical went on to win four Tony awards. The full musical depicts a blossoming romance between the American G.I. Jerry Mulligan and a French ballerina, Lise Dassin. The ballet excerpt was Wheeldon’s take on one of the most memorable scenes from the film – an extended sequence in which the two central characters dance through Paris.

This is a quote from the back of the Beatles 4th album “When, in a generation or so, a radio-active, cigar-smoking child, picnicking on Saturn, asks you what the Beatle affair was all about – ‘Did you actually know them?’ – don’t try to explain all about the long hair and the screams! Just play their music.”

Throw away all your inhibitions!
No band does it better than the Upbeat Beatles.
