039R Keith Emerson – One Of Those People – Remastered

A solo show, as Mal was away from home and Edison has a recurring prior obligation on off-weeks.

Notes rewritten from the first broadcast to improve them – I’ve learned a bit since then.

Despite the Easter holiday weekend, a good audience, peak eighteen, and sixteen for much of the show.  Thanks for stopping by, and I’m glad you liked it.

Enya has always been a popular subject for cavern regulars, and in its earlier form produced a large audience, larger than any we’d ever seen before.  Not quite that good this time, but still a good number, and we were very happy to see you all.
