JOHN STEVENS @ Terry Day Benefit 1991






















The first SME piece has been issued on the excellent 'Hot and Cold Heroes' (Emanem) as 'One for Terry Day', although with a small section edited out.  If you don't have that cd, I heartily recommend you buy it.

On a side issue, I have only just realised that I've been zipping files rather than a folder of files.  Sorry about that.

Enjoy.

  1. thanks andy... and for those who dont know Terry Day, he played drums, saxophones,flutes and other sundry instruments, in 'the People band' contemporaries of SME, AMM , a more community orientated collective, whos membership sometimes included non-musicians... they can be heard on Emanem 5201, people band 69/70
