Speaking of Sting related additions, what happened to David Sancious and or Tone for JR? I know some of my recomendations are contraversial, but this one's a "no-brainer" (I hate that expression).

When I ran his recommendation in the CZ all the comments were positive. He's not a personal favorite but when I listened to this Tone record I have, I couldn't believe he wasn't already here. The record I have is classic 70s prog influenced fusion ala Holdsworth, Bruford, RTF, Ponty etc.

And speak of the devil, I believe he works with Sting a lot.
Martin and I have a pretty good relationship so I'll talk to him.  If he approves.. I'll let you know. You give me the pertinent info.. and I'll add him.  I have about 6 Italian artists of my own I need to do addtions from the ground floor up on that were postponed during vacation. However if you'll do the leg work.. I'll add him.




Thanks Michael, just let me know if he gets on board and I will help. I'm pretty sure Dick Heath was keen on him due to comments he left in the Sancious thread.


P.S. The Summers-Fripp albums are great, of course they are here as Fripp albums, but I would imagine Summers is worth checking out on his own.


I think Summers merits serious discussion, I'll see what my fellow X-dressers think of him. 

If he was added.  We would do like we did with Sylvian and Fripp... it would be a separate entry as Summers-Fripp.   Probably should have been done that way anyway. 

I'll let you know if he is on board with us adding Sancious.  PM'ing him and getting his thoughts and opinion on it.
