Heard this guy at a Celtic connections gig in royal concert hall Glasgow, it was a Springsteen tribute, checked out his own stuff afterwards, he’s some vocalist and not a terrible songwriter either.

Saw Focus in 1973 @ The Kelvin Hall in Glasgow ... The Kelvin Hall only lasted a few years as a music venue, also saw Gong & then The Mahavishnu Orchestra there before it closed.

Makers of the biggest diesel engines ever seen. I lived all of my schooldays in Poynton, about 5 miles away. They were always hunting down new engineers and draughtsmen at yearly recruiting and apprenticeship fairs. Not my bag at all, but went to see the plant out of curiosity.
Still got (and listen to) my Gong flying teapot album - absolute madness

Mirrlees were medium speed diesels slow speed ( as on ships) are vastly larger, think 4 story's high.

When I got the tour, they were focusing on engines for Middle East power stations, but definitely that scale. They were so huge, as to be unrecognisable as engines, to my 16 year old eyes
