Nils Lofgren: New Victoria, London
Ian Birch, Sounds, 15 May 1976
I REALLY wanted to be knocked over, under, sideways, down by the concert. Especially after last November's disappointingly patchy performance. I mean right from those nerve-jangled fills on After The Goldrush through Grin and up to the recent solo albums I've lapped up Mr. L. like Londoners have had cold drinks over the last few steamy days.
