Kevin, your absolutely right. I forgotten about the Calvert tribe. Your
probably right in guessing the reasons why Huw was not on form. Don't forget
though, Nik was rather stealing the limelight!

I only ever saw bob perform once, that was with the band at Ramsgate, in May
1984. The band were really relaxed and Calvert was superb with his brass
megaphone - I've even got a great tape of that gig too! It would have made a
great video - alas, missed oportunities!
