Sorry about the quality of the picture, it’s one I took when I had the pleasure of seeing him perform at Cardiff’s St. David’s Hall in the late 80s…
How lucky you were to see him live! Thanks for the post.
I really enjoyed listening to that Richmond, so thank you for posting!
You are welcome Twink55 – a great combination of talents in that post! Glad you enjoyed it.
Richmond, although Mama is a very emotional song & Roy has a wonderful voice, I got the impression that he was so emotive, whilst singing it, that his words were not as clear as usual.
I am not criticizing, but just wondering if he recorded it during one of the tragic periods of his life.
Could possibly be the case Twinks – he did have a very sad life - and music can move us all very deeply - no doubt. in expressing a very sad loss in his life. this comes across in his performance.
You got it! One of my favourite songs
