Could you introduce yourselves and talking a bit about your past?
and [Gb] I worked for two or three days before I joined the L.A.
absolutely knackered when [G] our manager
You're not that slow.
honestly remember I joined the group [Eb] other than the fact that there was a phone call from somebody saying that I gave somewhere to meet a load of people.
to these television studios [A] and walked in and [B] I've never seen anything [Ab] like it in my life.
couldn't believe it and I remember it vividly to this day.

[N]
Pass it on to Mr.
Edwards.
I'm Mike Edwards and I was studying at the Royal Academy of Music.
Yeah, _ _ well_ Lies.
[E] And _ I got this weird phone call one day, you know, would I like to join the [Gb] band?
I never got a phone call.
I play cello.
Over to Geoff Linn.
Ah, hello there.
My name's Geoff Linn.
And I didn't have any auditions because I was a cheat and I sort of founded the [N] group, so I didn't have to go through any of those things.
Where did you find it, Geoff?
Where did I find it?
And _ _ _ so there was none of that problem for me.
I sort of sneaked in.
Because I grew up in Bever_
as well as Bev's there. _
Big Bev.
Later, later.
Later, Jerry.
And so I'd like to hand over to Rick Pennell, who's the star of the show.
Ah, hello.
I'm Rick Pennell, as you've heard [Ab] before.
And I'm sound engineer and [Db] hair dryer repairer.
_ I have played _ here in [Ab] Hamburg two years ago.
Yeah.
But now it's a pleasure to be on television.
_ _ [G] _ Well, I'm Hugh [Db] McDowell.
I play electric [A] cello. _
[Bb] I've been playing [G] cello _ longer than I can remember.
_ And how old are you? _
_ How old?
[C] Twenty_
I can't remember.
_ _ _ [Ab] Twenty-one.
[B] Twenty-one.
Yeah.
Okay.
_ _ Have you finished?
Yeah, I've finished.
Ah, my name's Dave Bevan.
[G] I'm the other founder member with Geoffrey [F] of the band,
which we formed out of the [G] move before this.
And I'm the drummist in the band.
_ There's only one more [Gb] left, and that's the keyboard player.
He was [E] a founder member too.
Richard Tame.
[C] Oh, I was a founder member too.
We're all founder members.
Oh, I don't think there's going to be an argument now.
Come on, pan in on this lad.
[N] _
We're all founder members. _ _ _ _ _
Where's Roy Wood?
_ [G] Shh, shh, shh.
_ _ Okay, Richard.
My name's Richard Tande.
_ _ I play the moog and the piano.
_ _ _ _ And I joined the group from the start,
[Ab] and since then I've [G] never looked back. _
With all these founder members [Ab] around you,
could you tell us something about the [G] evolution of cello
and the idea behind [Ab] it?
Someone?
_ Geoffrey. _ _
[Gb] Well, the evolution, of course, was [G] due to the fact that _
it was me, [E] Roy Wood, Dave Bevan,
and [Em] Richard Tande.
_ [G] We were sort of fed up with playing the usual style of _ _ [E] rock and roll,
you know, the three guitars, [G] bass, you know, all this sort of stuff.
And we got sort of fed up with doing that,
and [B] so we said, [Eb] ba _ [E]-bam, let's bring the strings into the scene.
[G] You know, like cellos and violin, which hadn't been used at the [Abm] time.
This is two years ago.
[G] _ _ _ And we never looked forward since, [N] _ backwards.
Never looked back since.
_ Sideways.
Sideways, of course.
Never looked back.
And that's why we did it, you know,
[F] because we were fed up with doing the usual thing that all the groups play,
[E] the same as every other group.
So we wanted to do something [Ab] different.
The sound is a very big problem with three string players,
which are playing wooden instruments.
Oh, it's incredible string, actually.
_ _ _ [G] How did you manage that?
_ [Abm] _ To have a real full _ sound.
It's taken two years, you know, of solid work
to get it to come like it is now.
We started off [G] using contact microphones,
but we got rather bad sound and feedback. _
_ At the moment we're using [Gm] _ special bridges with _ _ [A] transducers _
actually built into the bridge.
[Abm] And I've also stuffed [Bm] my cello full of expanded polystyrene
and a bunch of [Em] shit like that.
_ _ _ _ [N] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Could you introduce yourselves and talking a bit about your past?
_ My name is Michael [G] Albuquerque _ _ and _ [Gb] _ I worked _ for two or three days before I joined the L.A.
