I carry two plectra in my wallet at all times but as far as picking up the guitar - probably two years ago was the last time. Those days were a different life really. Can't complain this one's going good too Pro Tools, Logic, Fairlight - all nice toys for making noise! C ya!
Yes mate that's me in both hence my monika RAMJAMOZ living in Sydney now training sound engineers. Sold that Strat here in Sydney back in 2000 when I moved here. Glad you realised I formed & ran both these bands. Cheers PETE GAGE
Quite a change in image from the RamJam days!...Amazing that there is footage from that period...really impressive too!...Hope you're doing well in Oz. I visited my brother last year who lives north of Brisbane, which was interesting. Are you still playing or have you hung up the plectrum?
Wow Pete Gage the work you did with VJ was fantastic you wrote some great stuff also some fantastic songs on Rich Mans Woman and Two Days Away that I think you wrote as well
She looks the same today. She hasn't aged a bit. I recall seeing them at Crystal Palace around this same time,1972. Elkie was Britain's answer to Janis Joplin except alot prettier.
Janis Joplin hang your head in shame.

No Trevor was an established FoH engineer when he started working on Elk's tours. He'd worked with Diana Ross previously.

And the amazing thing is that Elkie is just as talented and hot today.
Probably more so, because she has 40+ more years of experience behind her ;-)
Nice hat on the guitarist dude, by the way.
