I travelled to Krakow on Tuesday this week. I met up with some other close friends of Eddie at the airport. We stayed at the same hotel.

Duncan Browne is underrated!

He deserves more attention!

Any fans here??

For those who don't know who he is look here: http://www.insyncnet.com/duncan/

I must say that he, along with Steve Hackett, Ant Phillips, Andrew Latimer and Jimmy Page is the reason why I play guitar.. I love his music :)
There are some videos on Youtube - be sure to check them out!

Duncan died in 1993 from lung cancer.. RIP Duncan..

Love Gentle Giant...they were kind of ahead of their time in terms of composition...just like my brothers band, Ars Nova. You love Bill Bruford, I Mitch Mitchell. I too play drums and have seen both perform.....both great players.
I used to play in a country-rock band that toured Oslo all the time...we played at the Gamle Christiana...wonder if that club is still there.... Hmmmm
