Ian McLagan
For more than half a century, keyboardist and singer Ian McLagan has been a prominent force in British rock and roll. He was a key member of the Rod Stewart-fronted band Faces, and he's worked with a staggering array of artists including the Rolling Stones, Bonnie Raitt, and Bob Dylan. As a solo artist, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer emphasizes his solid mastery of R&B, blues, and roots rock with old school concerts high on energy and showmanship. Though his setlists are heavily comprised of new material like “All I Wanna Do” and “Shalalala”, he also thrills longtime fans with soulful renditions of classic Faces tunes like “Glad And Sorry” and \".

It has been since 1975 (Faces final tour) that I have seen Ian McLagan. After buying, "Never Say Never," a few years ago I quickly regained interest in his career. When I saw he was playing Birdy's I immediately got tickets. This was for the most part, a solo show. Bassist/guitarist, Jon Notarthomas accompanied on several songs. Ian played a good mix of solo and Faces material with his distinct style and sound. Aside from a few starts and stops to get keyboard settings correct and the occasional lyric flub, Ian played a wonderful show. Interspersed with some great music were entertaining stories of his time with Small Faces and Faces. Ian promised to make a return with full band in the future, a date I'm anxiously awaiting. Following the show Ian spent a good amount of time doing a "Meet and Greet" and was very charming and engaging, chatting with each fan, taking photographs and signing anything and everything put in front of him. It's always a treat when one has the opportunity to see, hear and meet a Rock legend; Ian didn't disappoint.
