Lloyd Spiegal gave an exceptional concert.
by Elelizmarg on 2018-10-17National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5Lloyd Spiegal made me a blues lover. His sound was terrific. It seemed he had an orchestra of five behind him. He was so funny, creative, honest and engaged the audience. We were given licence to whoop it up with him and we did. It was exciting to see him play his guitar, the fingering, the extra sounds he made with it and his talent for writing songs made this concert so much fun. I would look forward to his next performance.
The fact that he played 45 min. sets with a break in between made for a perfect relaxed atmosphere and it was a tribute to his own endurance as he had just flown in from Australia and said he was experiencing jet lag. This didn't put a damper on his enthusiasm or his performance. Enjoyed it completely. Especially the smaller venue. Every seat was a good one.
