It was an album so loved that it seemed every household owned a copy!
In addition to presenting this classic album we will also be delving deeper into John Holt's (and The Paragons) glorious catalogue of hits with tunes such as; Stick By Me, The Tide Is High, Ali Baba, Police In A Helicopter, Man Next Door, A Love I Can Feel, Tonight and more!
All performed by the incredible voices of Winston 'Dim The Lights' Reedy, Natty Bo and True Idetity, backed by the incredible Roots Rockers Band.
The cruise is one of the highlights of the festival every year and always sells out. 2025 (our 37th anniversary) will no doubt prove to be no exception.
Come sail the Thames, take in London’s amazing sights, all to some of the greatest sounds made. They even open Tower Bridge for us!
