Woolly used the M300 throughout Maestoso in the the early 80s.

Hi Andy,

Do you know if Woolly was still using the M300 after he left BJH? To my admittedly inexpert ears the tron never sounded the same and I wonder if he used an M400 when he toured Austria with Maestoso.

Thanks

Mark

For all the gigs I did with Litmus, I never got stagefright, my theory being that I wasn't the 'responsible party', and no-one could hear me anyway. However, when I played with England's Robert Webb at the second Mellofest, I shat a brick... (prob.too much info. Sorry). Shyness is often mistaken for rudeness, I've observed. Woolly has a totally different personality. Speaing of which, I keep meaning to call him and get him to give me an interview on his M300 use throughout the BJH catalogue.
