Outstanding musician. Can't have been easy taking over from Bill Bruford. Always loved his terrific "tour de force" playing on this track from Rick Wakeman. Released just prior to his later work with the band.

RIP, wasn't he married to Errol Flynn's daughter, could be wrong.

Likewise, the Drama tour.
Great gig, great album, despite the reservations of the Buggles introduction.
Got AW's solo album 'Ramshackled' up in the loft somewhere.
RIP Alan.

They are. They had recently announced that Alan White was stepping back from the tour due to ill health and is being replaced by Jay Schellen. Schellen has toured with them before with White coming on for a few songs at the end and this was the intention this time but unfortunately time caught up on him. I interviewed Alan White a few years ago too. Nice man.
