[Heeplist] Post from Igor, from Russia with love!

[Bob Winward]

Yes I prefer David Byron but he is not with us. So Bernie is next man up and has done quite well. 
I do not get the Hensley Gilbrook comparison.  I seriously doubt anyone is comparing anything, except years in band.  

Where is the set list from Russia New Year's Eve?
