to wit:
Martin Turner visited me when I was selling my '73 BG/ EPG a couple of years ago, and told me he has wanted another 4001 that colour, since his original was broken at the headstock, when being unloaded from a plane, at a European gig back in the day...
It looks like he found one after all, though it's just a plain old boring 20-fretter. :) Check out this video of rehearsals last year, around 9'43" in:

When I was discovering prog as a genre (doing my best to find a way to reconcile classical music and hard rock), and living off VH-1 and repeats of The Old Grey Whistle Test, I was always confusing Wishbone Ash, Uriah Heep and Styx. I need to dig out some back catalogues, I think.

I saw this band open for Yes in November1974 (first leg of Relayer tour).
