Old gig tickets - Moving Hearts and Jah Wobble
So, it was 36 years ago I saw Moving Hearts and Jah Wobble at Brixton. No idea what the promoter was thinking of, coupling the ex-Planxty Irish rocking folksters with looped out dub-heavy Wobble...but there you are, proof it happened. One strong memory of the night - the air was absolutely thick with aromatic weed smoke. The Hearts were full of power and passion and played up a storm, a marked contrast to Wobble, who was cool and laid-back.
I must have been dead keen to see this, having picked up a very low-numbered ticket. And the ticket makes clear the gig was being filmed. Presumably a recording exists (though a cursory exploration via Google fails to locate it). Nice memories.
