The #ChurchOfRockAndRoll #46 He was a whizzkid young session guitarist before joining The Yardbirds in '66. And what a dash he cut: the side parting with curls obscuring one eye; ruffled shirts & peacock clothes; the virtuoso flash of his playing. And always something *occult* about him.

Oh to hear this again for the first time. Knocked my socks off.

This is the 2016 edition bought in the depths of lockdown in the summer of 2020.

A Yes line up I would’ve paid money to see would’ve included Vangelis on keys and Demis Roussos on vox. 😉

Watching the first episode of Supernatural on @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social and Robert Hardy is already chewing the scenery in superb fashion. #Ham

Part of a 2003 toofer. Very Yes like but none the worse for that. Poor old Peter Banks, he never quite got the breaks. Tasteless cover mind you. Different times I suppose.

Well, Discogs is telling me 1986 but the inner sleeve says 6/85 which feels much closer to my memory of buying it. Whatever, it still sounds great!

This and the Roger page taken from The History of Rock. A weekly magazine from the mid 80s that eventually ran to 12 volumes I think. They’re upstairs in the bottom of the wardrobe. Must dig them out.
