Hi, Not known to be a major drummer anywhere and no one will Confucious him with anyone else, but he is in a lot of far out things, and specially things out in left field somewhere. He really helped a lot of these things shine, and is always a special treat hearing him on any Roy Harper album ... and while no one ever knew that, it was his drums in several of Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells versions. I think Mike knew him from the early days with Kevin Ayers and/or the very early HARVEST breakfast days. Steve Broughton Band Roy Harper - Lifemask Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells Roy Harper - HQ Roy Harper - Bullinamingvase The Radio Actors - Nuclear Waste) Roy Harper - The Unknown Soldier Mother Gong - Robot Woman Na Kommer Den - Alle Tiders Duster Psychic TV - Dreams Less Sweet Ron Kavana - Rollin' & Coastin' Roy Harper & Jimmy Page - Jugula +4 Magic Muscle - Gulp! Tom Newman & Friends Nasher - Ripe Ice Plug RIP and a tip of the hat and a comforting hug to Edgar ... who worked with him in so many albums on their band, and how special many of those albums were! ------------- Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about!

Great drummer and all around good guy. From his work with The Edgar Broughton band to his fine work with Roy Harper. Steve was also a multi instrumental who was accomplished on guitar and keyboard as well. RIP. ------------- This message was brought to you by a proud supporter of the Deep State. |
