Yes! I'll be honest, I didn't like the choice of keyboard he used throughout the tour. His imitation of the mellotron sound was pale by comparison to the original. It was difficult to judge his abilities as a keyboard player because of that fact.. He was a great guy though, all smiles and enthusiasm, he really set a good vibe Smile

You mean Dave Bainbridge: founder member of Iona and possibly one of the best guitarists ever!! He is also a quite superb keyboard player.
A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life.

Thanks for the post. Who is playing keys and drums with the "electric" Strawbs now?
