Weirdly, we only got to see half the MESSAGE FROM THE RAVENS gig as this was when Mabel cat (R.I.P.) was very ill and we had to be giving regular meds and keeping an eye on her. We popped in, we nipped off. Also, the lighting was strangely dark and blue so some of these were nabbed on the phone in case that helped. (It didn’t.) My main memory is of them possessing excellent harmonies.
