I was a very late convertor to Wreckless Eric, effectively only ‘discovering’ him at what could best be described as a Cultural Exchange when he toured with the Rutles (I went along for Innes & co, my wife for Mr Goulden). I’ve seen him again once since, in a pub venue in Cambridge playing to about 30 people on a tour with his new wife, Amy Rigby, that doubled-up as their honeymoon. And given the lovey-dovey nature of some of their joint material there were times where it seemed we, the audience, were imposing somewhat.
