Yes! Really love a bit of Jack Johnson, I know he's not exactly Led Zeppelin or The Rolling Stones but he'll still be great to see with a Brothers at the Jazz World (where I think he'll be). I think he'd suit a Pyramid slot in the afternoon even better but I'll take either :P

He sold out Hyde Park? That's astounding. I am guessing it was at the height of his fame when In Between Dreams was everywhere. That album nestled alongside A Rush of Blood to the Head, Back to Bedlam and the Cold Feet soundtrack for a while there. I very much doubt that he could sell it out now.

I suppose he's just really quite popular with the general public. I like him a lot but I don't necessarily think he's groundbreaking or the best thing in music - for me it's more kind of kicking back with a cider and listening to him during the Summer with some mates down the beach. Hopefully something I'll be doing at Glastonbury (minus the sand). :P

Saw him in Birmingham few years back and was enjoyable enough. First two albums were better than "in between dreams" personally.

and as above, G love plus Ben Harper, Donovan Frankenreiter etc would all be good additions.

edit: he's too big for Acoustic/Avalon. Wouldn't surprise me if he is afternoon pyramid to be honest.

    • Another one from Sheffield DocFest this weekend, Earth Wind & Fire docu, directed by Questlove. Sensational archive footage, contributions from band members, family, plus a lot of very big fans (Stevie, Lionel, Flea, the Obamas) and a warts n all assessment of the genius / flawed human being that was Maurice White. Also, I never realised he started out as a jazz drummer with Ramsay Lewis. Well worth a watch.
    • In a 6,800-word Substack essay, external, the Clacton MP said "anti-white racism was embedded into the state", and that legislation aimed at equality was a form of "social cleansing"   .https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cdjkd4mp93zo   The privileged white c**t hasn’t got a clue what racism is.
