[DAVID M SHERROD]

As for Micks solos, I think Salisbury through Sweet Freedom is my favorite era. As for Micks song idea's like everyone else's were left behind because Bron only wanted Ken writing the songs and would give him all the writing credits even when Lee wrote most of the song, which led to him leaving the band. So it had to affect Micks confidence in his own song writing which could be why they did so many covers in the Goalby era. Dave S.
