HI,A THIS IS CÉSAR INCA.

Curt Cress is the link, since he was the original drummer for German jazz fusion act Passport, and sometime in the late 80s drummed for Saga in their '87 and '89 albums (Saga was the working as a trio - it means that Cress wasn't a group member). Cress returned sometime in the 90s as an occasional replacement for Steve Negus. I wonder who is replacing negus nowadays, since he stepped out last July.

Regards.

CRESS - may I add that he did a very interesting job in Triumvirat's 'Pompeii'. And he also drummed for Alphaville on their enormous 80s Euro-pop anthem 'Forever Young'. Way back then, in 1984, this excellent techno-op act from Germany proved the world that they could also make a good prog song: APP, Yes or Saga woulda have been proud of writing it.

Regards.
