Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10
Moments come and go, some are left in the photograph album, untouched, unseen for years, others are loved, their very being able to transport you to a time when perhaps either everything was just how you wanted it to be, or they were painful reminders of what was but ones that now drive you forward, that make sure you have the impetuous to carry you on the next part of your journey and story.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10
Nerves are something you wouldn’t associate with Pete Williams, however genuine affection for a crowd’s enjoyment is something that comes across in waves, not just as a solo performer, or part as a band. Whether it is his own fused cocktail or the ever impressive Dexys but afterwards, where to many it matters just as much, away from the stage, in the even harsher glare of the spotlight when people can corner you and shake your hand and get a thousand questions in; the smile remains open, it flourishes with greeting and makes what has been on stage even more impressive.
