SUFC Fan "Pranks" Jim Phipps

[Cerberus Blade]

And to keep the thread along SUFC lines, the first band formed in Blackpool in 1963 by what were to become key members of Tull (Anderson, Barlow, Evans, Hammond among others) was called............

The Blades!

Would that be Peter Anderson, Frank Barlow, Ched Evans and Dean Hammond?

 

[Greenwich Blade]

He was right BB. Anderson was self taught and re-learnt the flute relatively recently. Still offered a unique sound and the group of the late '70's were extremely underrated as musicians. Some of the stuff they produced was highly complex. Don Airey (brief member of the late '80's and not a bad keyboard player IMHO) reckoned that Songs From The Wood was the most complex piece of music he had ever learned to that point.

Not to mention no other flautist could play all that stuff whilst balancing on one leg.
