40 Year Itch : Sing Me a Future


Kevin Ayers : Blue


  Before he would anonymously sing and play guitar with The Rutles, and after he formed the short-lived Boxer, Ollie Halsall may have had his greatest moment on record with his solo on the closing track of ex Soft Machine eccentric Kevin Ayers' 1976 album Yes We Have No Mañanas (So Get Your Mañanas Today). On tour,  the guitar duties were handled by Andy Summers who would meet an American drummer named Stewart Copeland in the Curved Air dressing room that year. Along with Sting, they would form the Police.
