On Saturday (October 18 2014) John Gregory’s blues duo, Blue John and Papa Cass, had the honour of being the support act for Jazz guitar legend Martin Taylor.

Martin performed a sold-out show at the Centenary Centre in Peel, Isle of Man.

It was an incredible solo concert by Martin who recorded his DVD, Freternity, at the centre a few years ago.

John said: “Martin Taylor is one of the greatest guitar players in the world – if not THE greatest. It was a great honour to open the show for him and we had a great time.

“There is always a very special atmosphere at the Centenary Centre and I would like to thank our friend Ernie Leece for booking Martin and for all the superb shows he has been responsible for at the centre over the years.”
