I was wondering who Mike's favourite artists are, along with Free and Abba, is he into Kraftwerk for example?

When Mike went to Ken Bruce's show on BBC Radio 2 in March,he had chosen a Keane track and said he enjoyed it.

On the Guitarist interview earlier this year he said he would like to work with Robert Fripp(of King Crimson) and again with Adrian Belew(also from KC)...

I dunno if Mike likes Kraftwerk...maybe the vocoder parts?

I read somewhere that he liked at least one of George Harrison's albums, can't remember which one.

I'm happy with that too, as I was at a Keane concert this week, and it was superb  :cool:

I remember him telling A Day In the Life by Beatles was his favourite song ever  :)
