Yep, that's them - although this wasn't the gig that appears on the live portion of 'BITF'.
I know, I know, there was Tweke instead, not Clive.
I wonder why it's the first time in 25 years I see a photo with Man and the Gwalia male choir... These jewels should always surface!

question: In 1972 live period both Clive and Phil played keyboards together? Or Clive always played guitar when Phil was in the band?

I think there was an idea at the start that Phil would play the piano and Clint play the organ, but that was dropped.

The only time during Phil's era that Clint didn't play guitar was on the early version of 'Aint Their Fight' when Clint and Will swapped.

...as evidenced by the fourth of John's pictures in Reply #2.

...and whilst I'm at it...how many posts have you had, Jules? My screen says 'leet'....
I've left all that behind now. Moved on to 'leeB' and now 'leeg' (my sport of choice).
Boldly going.......

Well that's the downside of living in Barcelona. You get the sun, we get photos of the Gwalia Male Voice Choir.

I have another more expansive shot of the same gig somewhere in the files. Will share when I find it again.

;) Well, I mean I've never seen a shot including all BITF issues, all Man web pages and all TWC collection (with special binders!).

Great, thanks !
