Thursday 16th August saw Eddie Martin at his very best, with an enthusiastic crowd of 130 at the Ritz enjoying his every strum and blast on the old “Gob-Iron”.

I’ve seen Eddie quite a few times, but there seems to be something extra in his performance now that connects his music to the audience in a way I’d not seen before. The guitar playing was authentic, and the harmonica exquisite. His vocals created a truly american blues feel, and unlike many other British Blues Players, he delivered the songs as they should be delivered, with joy and expression. Thanks Eddie for great night, come back soon.
