Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

The ukulele might be seen as a poor relation in terms of musical instruments to some, however within this small beast lies the beating heart of a scheming God and in the hands of the Ukulele Club Liverpool, that beating heart thumps as loudly as you could possibly wish.

John Williams, Gig Review. The Cornmarket, Cornmarket Acoustic Festival. Liverpool.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Watching John Williams perform, no matter the setting, has the same feeling of contentment thrust upon you as someone giving you a five star hotel room for the weekend and charging you only a pound for the pleasure. As he stood with guitar in hand and the guitar/violinist of choice, and with Elizabeth Kearney from Nighthowl by his side, the moment of absolute enjoyment was stretched out and unfolded at a rate that would reflect the day, laid back but with the sense of history being made and for that John Williams gave a near exemplary performance in which all assembled revelled in.
