Mike played guitar on Downwind which was recorded live at The Venue in London on March 11th, 1979, just prior before going on his first big European Tour at the end of March.
The Venue was a Music club at 33 Victoria Street, London, England, owned by Virgin Records. It opened its doors in October 1978. The first act to play there was Graham Parker and The Rumour, followed by the last live performances by Alex Harvey before his death.
Short notice: Mike played a couple of gigs with Alex Harvey in 1972. They met each other in the Band that played the musical Hair in London´s Shaftesbury Theatre, where Mike stayed for 6 months. Other members in the band were Mike de Albuquerque (bass), Frank Riccotti (vibraphone) and another guitarist called Micky, who had subsequently helped Mike on his sessions for what was to become Tubular Bells.
