Okay here's a tough one... Q. Who was planning to sell his bass and buy a motor bike when Soft Machine recruited him in the nick of time...? |

Ahhh, we have a winner... I mean otherwise it would have just been a question of reeling off the bass players... But yes, Soft Machine only just got to him in time... Guess he needed the money... |

Sure was, but he never considered that he'd play bass again I suppose... Having finished with Wilde Flowers and then being Soft Machine's road manager for a while... They had been given instructions to reform by the record company (I think) and so he got called up again... |

Oh yeah! I am remembering now! During that time, they just signed a contract with Columbia Records.(CBS is Europe I suppose.) ------------- On A Dilemmia Between What I Need & What I Just Want
