SLOW DOWN LINDA ( LIVE) ERIC CLAPTON W. CHAS DAVE

In 1982 Chas Dave and their selfcoined rockney style (lyrics with a cockney accent set to a musical mix of pub singalong, musichall humour, boogiewoogie and rock n roll) were at the pinnacle of their popularity. So London Weekend Television felt it suited to offer them Chas Dave s Christmas KneesUp, a Christmas show in an according setting of a pub with the action in the midst of the crowd. Upon its success this was followed by six episodes of Chas Dave s KneesUp in 1983. Musical guests on the Christmas show were singer Lonnie Peters, old pal Albert Lee and Eric Clapton. Here s the first of two songs featuring Clapton on vocals and guitar and his band member at the time, Albert Lee. Although Slow Down Linda had already been recorded for Money And Cigarettes, this was a TV premiere as the LP would not be released before February 1983. Enjoy
