My last contact with him was when Quincy Jones was recording in London and was looking for a harmonica player who could play blues. I told quincy that iwould try to locate Duffy (no easy task as Im sure you know) but luckily we managed to find him.Quincy took him under his wing knowing what he was letting himself infor but he loved Duffys playing. The bad news is that all this took place in the 70s and i have never seen him again. If he is dead I am really sorry as I worked with him quite a lot and loved his playing. Sorry I cant be more helpful. All the best Terry Cox. Hello Colin

The reason I am making contact is because I recently posted a blog "Whatever happened to Duffy Power?" and just had a 'comment' claiming that "he died in a car crash in 1976". I haven't been able to find any site that confirms this, indeed some pages say he's still musically active. Can you throw any light on this? I'd appreciate any help you can give. Colin PS Worked with Bert during the '70s, first when I was at Charisma Records, then again briefly for his management Bruce May. Sent him an email a few weeks ago but didn't get a reply sadly.

There aren't all that many websites around about drums that I've discovered at any rate. I am going to subscribe to your feed then see what you come out with next!

Ahora estoy escuchando tu trabajo. Me gustan mucho "Land of the free" "Doctor, preacher,.." The "midnight movie". En general los temas guardan una linea fresca, intima y relajante. Tambien me estoy introduciendo en tu época de Pentangle. Música Folkie muy buena hecha con el corazón. Pura artesania. Saludos.

I was wondering if you had any recollections of recording this? It's a real detective job, as it was begun in late 1971 and finished two years later, and released a year after that, plus they used 4 different studios (Air, Apple, De Lane Lea and Island). I think the tracks you worked on may be the ones done at Air in November 1972. Most of the contemporary tape logs I have been given show that they were using two drummers on the same sessions (yourself and Gerry Conway on one). There are also two guitarists named - Jim and Colin, but no surnames. Anyhow, anything you might recall would be great, such as how you came to work on the tracks, who else was there, etc. all the best Simon Robinson Hi Terry -I’m writing the booklet notes for a reissue of the Ashton Lord album, First Of The Big Bands.
