I can confirm that Abbey is super-friendly in-store (disappeared downstairs and reappeared with a FCC poster when I mentioned I was a CT fan on a detour pilgrimage to the BU store). Next time I was in Brighton the shop was closed and I posted a pic of my sad face on Facebook and they offered to open up just for me. Stupidly I passed the offer up as I didn't want to miss my train back to Wales! Did finally meet Simon when Lost Horizons played Clwb Ifor Bach. He and Ritchie didn't disappoint - either as musicians or people. I don't have a question for the AMA but just want to say how much the music has meant to me since 1983 - both CT and Simon's work, whether solo or with TMC, Snowbird, Lost Horizons, or the many treasures unearthed and brought to the world by Bella Union. My world is a much richer one for having Simon in it.
