For "the does anyone know" category.  I've been listeningto obscure "prog" bands from the early 70s as of late,including Druid.  Their keyboardist, Andrew McCrorie-Shand (whoevidently went on to fortune and fame as the musical director of theTeletubbies), plays various synths on Toward the Sun.  Ibelieve there are shades of M400 on tunes like "Voices","Theme", and "Shangri-la", but am not sure. I've got a OGWT (Whistle Tour) clip of them playing these first twosongs, and while I can't make out the M400 for sure, there's a signature3-strings sound.  Anyone know?

Sidebar question: any idea when the Schizoid Band will be touring theU.S. (they've been about everywhere -- Japan, Italy, UK, Poland, and evenRussia -- but the states).
