 =-> Quoting Clark Ray to Martin Ridgley:
 CR> There was another Brand X CD released in late '95 or maybe early
 CR> this year.  I can't remember what it's called and I don't have it,
 CR> but it was released.  Mr. Goodsall told me himself at one of his
 CR> gigs in L.A. :-)
   Cool.  I'll go looking for that one!  So, how was the show?  I haven't 
 seen Brand X `live' since about 1978 or 1979!  ;-(
 CR> And, there was _Brand X The Plot Things - A History of Brand X_, which
 CR> is just a compilation.
   Yeah, I think I'll pass on that one, because the only other album I
 don't have is _Product_.
 MR> Percy Jones ... one of my all time favourite bass players.
 CR> Well, there's _Marscape_, which is by Robin Lumley and Jack Lancaster.
 CR> Jones plays bass on it and Collins plays drums.  I highly recommend
 CR> this album.
   Ah yes.  Great album!  I forgot to mention it but I've got that one.
 CR> And, I just ordered _Peter The Wolf_ performed by members of Brand X.
 CR> I'll let you know what it's like when I get it.
   Yeah, please do.
 CR> Also, Brian Eno's "Music For Films" is supposed to have Jones on it.
   Okay.  A friend of mine has that one so I'll check it out, too.
 CR> Then there's some band called the Intergalactic Touring Band which
 CR> had all kinds of people you'd recognize like Anthony Phillips, Annie
 CR> Haslam, Rod Argent, Dave Cousins, Meatloaf, members of Staus Quo, and
 CR> others.
   Hmmm... there's another one I haven't heard of.  Sounds intriguing.
 CR> From the Genesis Discography from alt.music.genesis:
 CR> Hex -- Jones had a band called Hex, which has never released an album,
 CR> They did do gigs, and played mostly tunes from Cape Catastrophe....
   Yes.  I heard about them from a friend who saw them in New York City.
 CR> That's all I can think of, but I'm sure I'm missing something.
   Well, there's a few there to add to my list  That'll keep me busy for 
 a while.  
   Thanks a lot for the info, Clark!  :-)
    Cheers,
             Martin
