"GHOST SO GOOD ITS SCARY"    Wakefield Pubspeak May 2005    by Mr.T

 

"Pat and I went over to Crigglestsone club on Saturday night where the band Ghost were engaged artiste. We were just in time as they were about to take the stage for their final set. The last time I saw Ghost was when Kerry Carlton and Curtis Senior were a duo: they have since taken on a drummer, Matthew Revill and a keyboard player, Amy Foster, and together they make a great sound. The have a first-class sound and lights sytem - and the speakers look massive!! One senior citizen told me that he had enjoyed their music so far and although louder than the normal Saturday night entertainment they were not too loud. Ghost opened up the last set with I love rock n roll followed by Summer of 69, Rocking all over the world and Alright Now. They played numbers from Queen to Status Quo and a whole host of other songs displaying the talents of the musicans. Amy on keyboards was absolutely super and it makes a change to be able to hear every instrument clearly. Lead singer Kerry knows her way about a stage and knows how to work and please an audience.  I noticed a different keyboard player on their picture but the one they have now is superb."

 

"I recently checked out a group called Ghost. Now one or two of you may be saying, "I know a duo who goes by that name". Well not anymore, the duo are now a four piece band who play rock classic songs by Meatloaf, Whitesnake, Tina Turner and Prince to name but a few.
This Band maybe only about two years old but the band members’ talents go back a lot further than that. They are fronted by the lovely powerful voice of Kerry Carlton, the lead singer of the band. Curtis the lead guitar player, a highly talented guitarist, (see him play) also knocks out a few rock songs to keep you amused. And, if this band hasn't given you enough, then there’s Steve Johnson playing bass guitar and giving you a song or two as well....
Steve the front man of Guns and Oatcakes fame, told me that he was taking time out and enjoying being part of this band after losing all of his bands equipment earlier this year.(best wishes mate).
If you like to see a double bass drum kit in action, well Steve Oakden's your man. Seems this group’s got the lot, when it comes to Rock."
