LOUDON &
CO
1994 - Loudon's very own BBC
TV series.
Entitled 'Loudon
& Co', this was five shows recorded by BBC Scotland over
five days with a variety of guests.
The main criticism
was there just wasn't enough of the man's music. Each 45 minute
show began with Loudon saying "Hi Folks" and then immediately
singing a song, Afterwards, that was generally all the music
you got from 'Loudo' (although one show had *two* songs).
For the other
40 minutes you only saw him introducing and thanking his 'special
guests'. As you can imagine, it was so annoying. In fact I didn't
even watch all the shows because of this.
Anyway, dig the
fancy clothes the BBC bought for him and also some unusual shots
of him wearing his glasses onstage.
The songs were
as follows :
|
1. |
'He Said, She Said' |
|
2. |
'I'm Alright' |
|
3. |
'Talkin' New Bob
Dylan' |
|
|
'Mr Guilty' |
|
4. |
'Unhappy Anniversary' |
|
5. |
'The Swimming Song' |
Loudon, himself,
apparently wasn't too impressed with the format of the show.
About a year later he put his thoughts down 'on paper' in an
article he wrote for 'Mojo' Magazine.
