Randy Crawford: Hammersmith Apollo, London

I'VE ALWAYS HAD A SOFT SPOT for Randy Crawford. Ever since I caught her eye backstage at a recording of Top of the Pops and she smiled at me. It was like bathing in Mediterranean sunshine. Of course, I now know Crawford smiles like that at everyone. She beams and sings 'Rainy Night in Georgia' in tones that imply every kind of weather, good and bad. Audience members, entranced, shout: "We love you Randy," mid-song.
