Tyne Idols Dates and Times for 2012
Sunday 4 March
Tyne Idols presents An intimate evening of music with Rab Noakes
at Porters, Tynemouth Station
Rab Noakes first visited Tyneside from his native Fife to perform in Whitley Bay in 1969/70. It was then that he met Lindisfarne and a mutual friendship and admiration was forged. He was a founder member of Stealers Wheel with Gerry Rafferty and then went on to make many solo albums both in the UK and USA. He moved into radio and television production in the 1980s but has recently revived his performing and recording career and features regularly at events like Celtic Connections. Don't miss this rare treat.......
