Graham, brilliant. That was on my list to do but you beat me to it,

Sadly, the two versions of Gordon's Heartsong I was thinking of aren't on Spotify :( The original album version features John G Perry on W1111 (and Simon Phillips on drums) while the version on Live At Oxford has John Gustafson reinterpreting Perry's lines on his JG (with Ian Mosley later of Steve Hackett and Marillion). So instead, here is JG miming on Top Of The Pops on his JG bass to JGP's original bass track!
