Wot! not even "Echoes" Martin @port perran .

On a sad note, I learnt today that Dave Cousins of the Strawbs died a few days ago. A band that passed me by apart from the single "Part of the Union". He had a solo career as well.

Here from a more recent album is the Strawbs in a "proggy" mode with Dave on vocals...


RIP Dave.

That is very sad news indeed.
I saw the Strawbs 3 times I think it was and had most of their early albums back in the day.
As is usial for me I preferred their earlier stuff particularly the Just a Collection of Antiques and Curios album. They became a little louder and rockier after that but I quite liked From the Wychwood and Grave New World.
I'm sure I'll get used to cream first soon.

I hadn't heard that. Very sad :(
I feel too much Strawbs and Dave Cousins voice began to grate on me. My favourite tracks are 'The Hangman & the Papist' and 'New World', the former with Rick Wakeman on keyboards and the latter with Blue Weaver
