One of the gigs I pre-booked aeons ago, pre-pandemic, was to see Lamont Dozier perform solo at St. Georges in Bristol. Sadly, due to reported ill-health, he had to cancel, and the tickets were put into limbo, hopefully anticipating a re-schedule at some later date. But now he’s cancelled, permanently, and I won’t ever get to experience his particular genius in person. What a giant of popular music, alongside his Holland buddies, I’ve missed. Nowhere to run to hear him now. RIP old chap, you soundtracked a huge part of my life. Thank you.
Lamont Dozier skips gig commitments, the rascal.

What a disappointment!
Why not treat us to a few favourite tracks, Foxy?
I, for one, am very ignorant about him.
Check this out for a list of their many hits

Absolutely incredible
Wow, it really puts it into perspective when you see all their hits laid out like that. Stratospheric pop talent.
I’m still hanging on to my Gerry Rafferty tickets.
There’s talk of it being the greatest come back for something like 2,000 years
