He was a GS (or Alsation as they were called in them days) and Harvey the roadie acquired him in Bradford. He chewed the buttons off my coat. Bradford(the dog) not Harvey  Cheesy


Jude, I realise  this question is in the wrong section, but do you happen to remember if 'Harvey the roadie' went on to work for Arthur Lee and Love on a British tour later in his career?


No I'm afraid I don't know what happened to him other than I believe he was convicted of dangerous driving, but no idea what happened to him after that..


Thanks anyway Jude.  


Most of the Baby Lemonade 'Love' guys (Mike Randle, Rusty etc. and Johnny Echols too) are on Facebook....you could always ask them.


I didn't think of that David, thanks.

A Sailor's Life alone was more than worth the price of admission. If that wasn't truly psychedelic, then I don't know what is...


It is to my eternal regret that the pre gig beers kicked in at about that point and I heard the first half of A Sailor's Life via the surprisingly good acoustics of the Gents toilet at the back of the stalls!  Embarrassed

I was back in time for the noisy bit though. Had I known there was about to be an interval I would have crossed my legs.  Cool

If we're reminiscing about visits to the Gents during this show, I had to make a dash for it during Teddy Thompson's rendition of Genesis Hall - luckily I seem to remember the foyer and the Gents were equipped with a speaker system so I managed to hear it all !


Thank goodness there wasn't a reciprocal arrangement....  Roll Eyes
