[Heeplist] David Byron and some people's memory

[Igor Shveitser]

 Hi Bob,
To me that also adds to the picture of how they respect the past :)))) In Moscow it was the same. I don't judge Bernie too strict, he wasn't there at the time in question, and the years mentioned probably point on the time he first heard of respective LPs :))))))))))))))))) But Mick for sure was there and he ain't deaf - so why such sloppiness with dates? Hope you had a good show anyway.
Cheers, Igor
