What ever happened to the “unknown” John Clark?
John Clark stepped in at very short notice for Allan Holdsworth on a European tour, and stayed on with my band Bruford for the next two CDs and couple of years. The group collapsed under a mountain of tour expenses around 1980, mostly caused by shipping a Hammond organ round the U.S. John was, and no doubt still is, a terrific player and a gentleman. He picked up work with pop-singer Cliff Richard’s band ( something of a cultural icon in the UK..) and as far as I know has been there ever since.
