Lulu's first gig of her farewell tour was a Glasgow swansong 60 years in the making, writes ALAN CHADWICK


ALAN CHADWICK: Lulu has been around for so long it's impossible to think of the music world without her.

And this is where it all began,' the wee lassie with the big voice who left the tenements of Glasgow's Dennistoun behind for Swinging Sixties London tells a crowd determined to give one of their own the send-off she fully deserves, on a night charged with emotion. Which they duly do, each song greeted with loud applause in a two-hour set packed with hits (Relight My Fire; The Man With The Golden Gun) and covers that show pensioner Lulu remains a force of nature, as she bounces around stage with all the verve and vigour of someone half her age. She also mixed in live vocals on stage to accompany footage of David Bowie singing The Man Who Sold The World, and Tina Turner performing I Don't Wanna Fight.
