This is music

Music reunions can be a blessing. Like The Verve’s recent get-together for their first live gig since 1998. Richard Ashcroft, on the low of a dismally unsuccessful solo career decides to return to a highly success winning formula, which was also what made him one of rock’s most revered frontmen. Now, it’s not known whether Richie had buried the hatchet with fellow band members, but from the look of it, on their return to stage at the Glasgow Academy, it certainly looks as if they have wiped the slate clean. Disappointingly, I wasn’t there to witness their return nor the performance, but the grapevine says it was as if they never disbanded in the first place.

Now let’s keep our fingers crossed to a new album.
