EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to a vibrant evening in Newcastle on October 14,1973. The image showcases the renowned Newcastle Big Band as they energetically perform in the car park of the University Theatre. The band members are immersed in their music, their passion evident through every note played. Standing proudly amongst his fellow musicians is none other than Sting (Gordon Sumner), the talented singer, songwriter, and bassist who would later become an iconic figure in the music industry. Positioned third from the left, Sting exudes charisma and talent that would eventually propel him to global stardom. Next to Sting stands John Hedley, a member of Last Exit and a gifted guitarist with his distinctive big curly hair adding an element of visual flair to this already captivating scene. The atmosphere surrounding this performance is electric; you can almost hear the infectious melodies filling the air as brass instruments harmonize with each other. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates not only a momentous night for these musicians but also represents an era defined by its love for live entertainment and soulful sounds. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it serves as a reminder of how music has always had the power to unite people and transport them into moments filled with joy and nostalgia.
