And with Mo Mohr and Mick Brockett of Nectar, gentlemen, what was the impetus of creating
the light show with the music?
How did that become?
We met in Firth, the camera club in Firth in Germany.
They were there doing a light show and we were there playing as a band.
We were there for I think three days, right Mick?
No, it was a whole week.
A whole week?
We were there for a week.
We used to do week gigs.
Germany was weird.
When you're running around on the circuit, you do a week in this club, a week in that
club, a month in another club.
Anyway, to [Eb] cut it short, we decided it would be great to have a band that [Gm] did the [F] music
and words and the light show would then tell the story and [D] visuals and it would overcome
the German, the French, the Belgian and all the different languages in Europe so that
they would see or they would understand what it was we were doing.
And then, that was in 1969, August 1969, in January of 1970, we'd just formed the band
a month before, a month [F] before.

Mick turned up at the [E] Pacific, in Hamburg, at the [Bb] Annex.
[A] We immediately said, hey Mick, you've got to come with us.
[N] We've got some gigs and we'll do what we always talked about doing.
So, that happened.
We would go to the clubs which we'd already booked into and I would say to the club owner,
look, for another 200 marks, we can give you a light show.
And they would say, nah, we've already got a light show.
And I said, no, you've not got a light show, you've got to have this [A] light show.
So, I would say to them, look, [N] Mick will do the light show and if you don't like it, you
don't have to pay him.
And they always, always paid him because they wanted him to come back.
Right, Mick?
[A] Right.
[N] And we were making money with the light show.
So, we had a bunch of gigs in 1969, almost to Christmas.
And this was in August, so I was doing big festivals as well.
And [A] we went home, the other [Bbm] guys didn't want to come back.
My gear was still in Germany.
[N] But I figured, let's see who's at the Annex in the hotel Pacific and guess who answers the phone.
This guy here.
Yeah, Mick, come on over.
So, I knew what to say.
So, [A] that's how it started.
