An evening of nostalgia with Alan Price at The Platform
Alan Price to return to The Platform
Alan Price will make a welcome return to The Platform in Morecambe on Saturday May 9.
Having found fame as the keyboard player with The Animals, where he performed such iconic hits as ‘House of the Rising Sun’ and ‘Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood’, Alan went on to solo success with a number of hit albums and singles such as the stirring version of the Screamin’ Jay Hawkins song ‘I Put A Spell on You’. This was followed by ‘Simon Smith and His Amazing Dancing Bear’, written by Randy Newman, ‘Hi Lili, Hi Lo’, plus the self-penned ‘The House That Jack Built’, ‘Shame’ and ‘Don’t Stop the Carnival’.
In 1970 Alan teamed up with Georgie Fame and they had a hit with ‘Rosetta’. In 1974 Alan wrote and released ‘Jarrow Song’, inspired by the town he grew up in and which became famous for the workers' march of 1936.
Alan has also starred in theatre productions and films and continues to write stage musicals such as ‘Andy Capp’ and ‘Who’s a Lucky Boy’. Join Alan and his band for a night of music spanning his career.
The show will start at 8pm and tickets cost £16 from the box office on 01524 582803.
