  • Description

    In 1985 the jazziest of the UK-based pop/jazz-acts, Working Week, went on a European tour to promote their most successful album 'Working Nights'. German state owned station Radio Bremen recorded one of Working Week's powerful live shows, which is now available for the first time in full length.

    Right after Larry Stabbins (a.k.a. Stonephace) and Simon Booth (a.k.a. Simon Emmerson of Afro Celt cult) formed Weekend they changed their style slightly and brought what comes after Weekend, the Working Week, to life and success. With their stunning live versions of formidable hits like "Inner City Blues", "Venceremos", or "Sweet Nothing" they took Bremen by not-so-quiet storm with their nine-piece big band fronted by charismatic singer Julie(t) Roberts.



    The livelove series from Promisign Music captures concerts recorded by German state owned station Radio Bremen.



    Personnel: Simon Booth (guitar), Larry Stabbins (tenor and soprano saxophone, flute), Julie Roberts (vocals), Paul Spong (trumpet), Richard Edwards (trombone), Kim Burton (piano), Chucho Merchan (bass), Joao Bosco De Oliveira (percussion), Nic France (drums)
