Renowned vocalist Terry Slesser has put together an ensemble of high-calibre musicians to pay tribute to the legendary guitarist Paul Kossoff. This is not a covers band or 'tribute' act as Terry performed alongside Kossoff in post-Free outfit Back Street Crawler. Their show features rarely-played highlights from Back Street Crawler’s catalogue (and of course some choice Free tracks).
Frontman Slesser knows how to captivate an audience. Aside from his amazing vocal ability, he's got some seriously entertaining anecdotes in his armoury which are all delivered with style and panache. This is a revealing insight into Terry’s shared experiences of working, touring and living with Koss.
Guitarist John Buckton has the Kossoff sound down to an absolute tee and that's no huge surprise when you consider that Free drummer Simon Kirke has said: "If Free were to reform, John would be my first choice as guitarist." Also included in the line-up is powerhouse drummer Clive Edwards formerly of UFO, Wild Horses, Uli Jon Roth Band and the Pat Travers Band. Dave Chapman (keyboards) and Rhino Edwards (bass) complete the line-up.
Paul Kossoff was revered by music fans and musicians alike and his personality shone through his performances. All of this is brought to life in a show of sheer quality which pays homage to the highly talented and much missed guitarist.
