HARRY HORNSEY & ALFIE BERNARDI
This blog would run to many
pages if it were to recount all the times spent at dreary pub gigs listening to
try-hard musicians plodding robotically through their predictable setlists of
blues numbers.
So chancing upon this dapper
duo in a backstreet Brighton venue not unconnected with previous bad
experiences was an unexpected delight. With superb harp player Alfie Bernardi at his side here was the extrovert HARRY
HORNSEY breathing new life into old
songs with wit and panache. His vivid vocals and dazzling guitar playing were
showcased in an unusually broad repertoire ranging from prewar blues, ragtime
and delta classics to country and early rock’n’roll.
