Wow! I was at the Hyde Park gig. Amazed to see Any footage. After that they got their Marquee residency. In those days I was spending more time in The Marquee than I was at home. Anderson was using a brown paper carrier bag to keep his stuff in. He would pull out a flask of coffee and a pack of cigarettes during 'Cats Squirell'. A routine which soon developed into Anderson passing cigarettes out to various people in the audience! On one occasion he didn't have any and asked if anyone had one? Instantly it was raining cigarettes!

I still laugh about it at her expense.

I’ll still argue the thought that DOFP was the first “prog” album. It really didn’t define the basic elements of prog, it was just an album with orchestral interludes and two great songs by the Moody Blues that were based more on folk music and structures than European classical music. The arc of The Nice from ‘67- ‘70 is where prog was invented and defined.
