I've seen him live a number of times since the mid 70s, and despite the inconsitancy of the performances when he was on form his music was beyond words.<BR/><BR/>At least they can't dig out any more greatest-hits compilations.

Pity he earnt more off the copy covering big names than he did off his own stuff.<BR/><BR/>One World.John Heehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01333628949466601415noreply@blogger.com
