David Essex, Wolverhampton Civic Hall
May 1 2008 By Ian Hall
WITH a wealth of material going back nearly 40 years, it would be hard for any one person to come up with as good a set list and showmanship as David Essex does.
Combine this with his shy elegance and you can see why he is still touring and is one of the best professionals in the business.
Opening the night with his new album's title track, Happy Ever After, he continued with Before I Met You and the beautifully sung If I Could. David then went into a collection of songs that will be featuring in his new musical, All The Fun Of The Fair.
He proved that he is still able to rock with the best of them with a stunning version of Remember England and Dangerous.
