I was also surprised by Mike's tolerance toward the more dim-witted questions from these hosts. Not that I think of him as particularly quick-tempered, but I might have been irritated by things like "Is that an acoustic guitar?". -------------- "I'm no physicist, but technically couldn't Mike both be with the horse and be flying through space at the same time? (On account of the earth's orbit around the Sun and all that). So it seems he never had to make the choice after all. I bet he's kicking himself now." - clotty Back to top

I can't imagine how many questions like those he had to answer during the past 35 years..... actually his performance is very brillant; wow ! thank for posting Claire   Back to top

Mike kinda reminds me of Paddy McAloon (Prefab Sprout), there. -------------- "I'm no physicist, but technically couldn't Mike both be with the horse and be flying through space at the same time?

Please excuse my ignorance as I bet its something very obvious that I'm missing! Many thanks Back to top

Zappa Group: Members Posts: 4 Joined: Feb. 2009 Posted: Mar. 01 2009, 09:44 Thank you so much. Its incredible that I really did not realise this existed.  I love the triumphant ending to The Wind Chimes. Its so instantly recognisable as Oldfield. Back to top
