Gigspot: Earth, Wind & Fire | London

Last week we had the enormous priviledge of seeing Earth, Wind & Fire perform live. Although I lived in hope, I never really believed I'd get to see Earth, Wind & Fire because it seemed their touring days were over. Naturally then, when I heard they were playing London I felt like a kid with a new toy.

GigSpot: Incognito 30th Anniversary | O2 Indigo

Ever since it was announced that Incognito would be performing with Jocelyn Brown at the Indigo to celebrate their 30th Anniversary we had been anticipating a great night and that's exactly what we got. The Indigo was a far better stage for Incognito than the Camden Centre - where we had seen them perform in April - and the O2 arena's venue within a venue allowed their musical and vocal brilliance to burst forth.

GigSpot: Stevie Wonder | 2008 tour

The last twelve months has, in my opinion, been an unprecedented year for live music in London with a number of bands and artists visiting the capital. Music with a funk vibe has been no exception with Stevie Wonder visiting the UK for the first time in many years; Roy Ayers taking up residence in the Jazz Cafe for a week; the brilliant Incognito celebrating thirty years and outstanding performances by the effervescent Maceo Parker.
