multi-instrumental : world musician |
A heavy italian shoulder cruncher bought from Allan by my father – cheers helped me indulge my lindisfarne fantasies in Edinburgh
Was used extensively in the scottish duo “FRAGILE” with Brian Thomson in Glasgow
Currently strung and tuned as a “poor man’s” Portuguese guitar to accommodate my Fado obsession. (Lisbon beckons!)

Hi George, Yes I remember the EKO 12 string very well. I have one too, as well as a 6 string version (which you will probably remember. My main guitars now are a 6 string Taylor and a 12 string Tanglewood. I still play a little, but not in public! I have a hut in my garden kitted out as a studio, but have not used it as much as I planned, but there is still time to make better use of it yet. Love the new website and look forward to hearing more of your recordings. Cheers for now. Brian
Brian – How lovely to hear from you – you have no idea how much I miss you and our days together in Glasgow with FRAGILE. Are you aware of just how much of an influence these days had on me?. I loved the repertoire and the sound we made from a wide mix of material. Do you still have the recording on mini-disc? I still have the box of all our publicity photos taken in the park near where I lived and about 1 zillion FRAGILE stickers – two of which are still attached to my EKO and 5 string banjo. Brian – thank you – I will contact you when I get back to the UK – and get back in the hut! Give my love to your family – m-g
