Barbara Dickson leads line-up for the eighth annual Words and Music Festival in Nantwich

Barbara DicksonTHE line-up for the eighth annual Words and Music Festival in Nantwich has been unveiled – and includes star singer and actress Barbara Dickson.
The Scottish-born singer will be one of the big draws to the six-day festival from October 12 to 18.
Other acts lined up include The Magic Numbers, Mark Chadwick of The Levellers, The Christians, Thea Gilmore, Gruff Rhys from Super Fury Animals and Frazey Ford. Organisers say it is the most varied line-up to date.
Legendary singer Dickson will perform in the heart of Nantwich as St Mary’s Church host their first Words and Music Festival concert.
The 67-year-old singer was awarded an OBE in 2002 for her services to music and drama, after many successful years with four of her singles reaching the Top 20 in UK Singles Chart.
Her duet with Elaine Paige “I Know Him So Well”, was cited in the Guinness World Records as the best selling female duet of all time.
Co-Founder of the festival Nigel Stonier said: “This concert is very special to us.
“We have been talking to St Mary’s Church for a while, and we have been keen to do something together.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
