Tangled in Moonlight

Albert Hammond is one of the more successful pop/rock songwriters to come out of England during the 1960s and 1970s, and has also enjoyed a long career as a recording artist, his work popular in two languages on three continents across four decades. Hammond was born in London in 1944 – his family actually came from the British colony on Gibraltar, but wartime considerations caused his mother to be evacuated to London, where she gave birth. He spent his childhood and youth on Gibraltar, where he became fluent in both English and Spanish – that bilingual ability would serve him well in his later career. His family lived modestly on his father's fireman's pay, and one of his early diversions was music – he sang in church and became head choir boy. He also became interested in popular music, sang for his own enjoyment, and also took up the guitar.

Live at The Warfield: February 28th, 1991 presents the opening night of a 3-show run at the JGB's beloved “home” in the Bay Area. The setlist is dotted with fan favourites, including the bubbly show opening “The Way You Do The Things You Do,” a rollicking “You Never Can Tell,” the gospel infused “My Sisters and Brothers” and the always vibrant “Deal."
