of the generation that grew up with trad jazz and the blues, which was what Melly mostly did.
It was a rag week concert (as it happens a week after the Dury one and a huge contrast, no pogoing for Melly) . I was told afterwards that Melly was watching the rag play going on in the Square from the walkway and put a fiver in the collection, a significant amount then when 10 Number 6 were 16p (not 15 as in the Supertramp song).
I only recently realised that University House / the LCR were only a year old when I arrived in 74. I suppose breezeblock looks pretty ageless.
