Subject: RE: Gryphon Reunion Gig
absolutely amazing talents
It might be worth mentioning here that Brian Gulland has a distinguished career in fine folk music taking in Malicorne and The New Scorpion Band on the way... Though I still remember him as the hirsute bassoon player in Gryphon - a band who once appeared on Blue Peter (those were the days!) introduced by John Noakes as the Medieval Slade. Seminal stuff!
Can't seem to find any of their live / TV stuff on Youtube, alas - but there is a BBC Session CD at Hux -

And if you like Gryphon you might appreciate the Prog Medieval Stylings of Gentle Giant...
