SAHB REVIEW

They dared to call themselves sensational in the early 70’s and didn’t disappoint last night.

The Sensational Alex Harvey Band were welcomed on stage by an enormous applause and thunderous foot stomping at the Brook, Southampton.

The venue was packed and songs such as ‘Jungle Jenny’, ‘Vambo’ and ‘Action Strasse’ triggered extreme head banging from the fans.

Exerting incredible energy and marvellous interaction the band truly entertained the crowds.

Lead singer Max Maxwell gave a wild performance embracing monkey characteristics to the song ‘Jungle Jenny’ that captivated the audience.

Mad Max is a comical showman and knew exactly how to work the crowd.

Chris Glen and Zal Cleminson played several stunning guitar pieces, along with Hugh McKenna on keyboard, and Ted McKenna on drums, together they rocked.

Zal Cleminson wore his memorable white face make up and even had a few supporters copy him last night!

The fans demonstrated their adoration further for the fantastic five and chanted "MORE, MORE, MORE" as The Sensational Alex Harvey Band left the stage.

Fulfilling the audiences’ request Mad Max crazily skipped back on stage wearing a colossal feather Indian headdress that won a massive response from the fans.

Ending the gig with a classic rendition of ‘Delilah’ cameras were frenziedly flashing as people wanted to remember their sensational evening.
