Old Rock Stars never die, and judging by Lost In Hollywood Again, they never fade away either. A 77 year old Graham Bonnet is testament to that. Recorded in the legendary Whisky A Go Go, on Hollywood’s Sunset Strip, in August last year, Bonnet and band give it their all.
Raw and raucous, you can taste the sweat as it drips from the venue’s ceiling. You can hear every voice in the crowd whooping and hollering as they give it up for each song. Bonnet is clearly welcome here. In reality it’s unvarnished proof of Graham Bonnet’s phenomenal voice. Ok, it’s lost a little of its lustre over the years. But he still climbs the upper slopes and delivers with vigour and indeed, soul. More than that, every note is weighted with a flinty edge of “Look, I’m still here” defiance.
