It really was Gary’s Brooker's (Procul Harum founder) night on 3 May 2001. It was the fourth time The Rhythm Kings played for an – again – sold out Paradiso crowd and Gary took more lead vocals* than ever. Although it's not included here, he also got to demo a new composition - Keep Your Shirt On - which he penned (very Coasters-like). Lipstick, Powder  And Paint is a 1955 composition by Jesse Stone and a  true Big Joe Turner classic and Gary delivers the goods. Wonderful!. If you 'follow' the Rhythm Kings you know that members sort of come and go. Shortly after this show, Gary left the tour only to return in mid July in Denmark. 

The band in the regular line-up enjoyed themselves immensely and so did the audience. Some other obvious members that night were Georgie Fame (vocals, keyboards), Bill Wyman (bass), Martin Taylor (guitar), Albert Lee (guitar),  Graham Broad (drums),  Keeley Coburn (vocals), Janice Hoyt (vocals), Beverly Skeete (vocals), Frank Mead (horns). Nick Payn (horns & harp).
