“Could anyone confirm who played drums on the Mahavishnu gig at the Free Trade Hall when Jean Luc Ponty played, please?
My memory suggests that it was a young Chester Thompson, playing a spanking new double bass drum kit.
It was all Mahavishnu music and the two stars traded 8s only at the encore.
Les Clark and his wife were extremely hospitable, feeding certain students with large Sunday meals. So large that the students would fall asleep!”
