Hi folks,

Yes I agree, what a concert!! Was in the front row and got some great photos even without any flash. I agree about "Midnight Mushrumps" and if the band had any doubts about the why they should do the gig then I think that the reaction prior to, and after "Midnight Mushrumps" said it all, don't you??!! The whole gig was beyond words but for me Ethelion raised the hairs on the back of my neck.

Eduardo (Mota) asked if I could do a review of the gig and I am compiling this at present. We also had authorisation to take some photos as well, so once everything has been given the "okay" by the band members (only right to do this as it is really copyright material etc.) then everything will be sent to Eduardo to put onto the web site.

BTW, GT, can't get through on your email or fax numbers. Thanks for the chat after the gig as well and for signing the CD covers.

Kindest regards

I couldn't make the gig..does anybody know where I can find reviews or pictures online?

Neil, I know what you mean about tears during Midnight Mushrumps.. it's spine tingling stuff, so exquisitely delicate... It used to transport me when I was a teenager and it still does. Think I'll go listen again now...
I envy you who were there!
Kindest regards

just want to say such a big thank you for the most wonderful show gryphon put on last saturday.I have been to many a gig in my time but don't think i have ever been in an audience where there was so much antisipation and ultimatly such a wonderful feeling of musical realisation.With the first notes of midnihgt mushies i was transported back to my youth and i am not ashamed to say that a rather large tear came to the eye and speaking to total strangers after i was not alone.I do so hope that the work the band put in will result in more shows and hopefully more material,there is nothing out there like gryphon and never was.bravo.regards to rolf.

thanks for all and for the so wonderful music of Gryphon (better than Yes and ELP for me).

As a blast from the past i've just listened to you roaring through the "Oakham Poachers" solo at Cambridge'97 (stage 2- Electric set only) brought back some great memories! Glad to see you are fit well and keeping that wolf from the door still!!

Hi Chris T
I've just checked amazon.co.uk and they've got some Gryphon albums available. I share your feelings entirely on the band. Red Queen is still one of the most colourful, original, musical,and goddam honest-to-goodness entertaining albums I've ever heard. Love them to death. Kind regards to all
Barry Smith..fabs welcome to write and let's talk Gryphon, folks!

Hi, I have been looking at all the Gryphon sites I can find after talking to Brian at a gig he did with the New Scorpion Band at Halstock in Dorset. As soon as I heard him play I new it was him! I came over all simpering with excitment and even asked him for an autograph. I last saw Gryphon in 1974 at the Albert Hall supporting Steeleye Span. I went off and bought all the albums. Of course, I cannot play them on the accursed new technology because they are all vinal! Can you help? Bloody hell, just thinking about another Gryphon gig makes me wet my pants. Please do it.
Kind regards, CJT.

How lovely to find you and your site! Just got a re-release of Red Queen to Gryphon Three, which I went looking for about 5 years ago, and could only find imports at outrageous prices.
Something made me check recently, and I now hold a copy in my hands which led me to your site. Can't tell you how much this record meant to me (and a lovely young lady friend) the year it came out. It was all we listened to. Don't know where she is anymore, but I'm glad I found YOU! Thanks for the music.

Blimey, seems an age ago I first saw Gryphon as support at The Marquee, Wardour Street. It was!
Hippily playing 'Red Queen to Gryphon Three' bedecked in 'Loons' amidst a girlfriend's plethora of 'Yes' albums. Thought it impressed her ... wonder where she is now?!
Why not - get it on, Gents - long awaited return of the rock bassoon!
Trying to think what medieval stuff our Morris Team can adapt to - singing 'The Astrologer' or 'The Ploughboy's Dream' is all I can come up with now! Not Kemp's Jig - too far, too long!
Greetings here from sunny Leatherhead!

I'm so excited about the upcoming Gryphon-concert that I can hardly speak! I just hope it'll be announced some time before the concert, since booking cheap airplane-tickets from Norway isn't easy for a poor student at a short notice..
But as Barry Smith mentioned: I'll crawl through broken glass to get to London, and I hope your new album will meet my sky-high expectations, he-he-he.

(By the way, a fan-meet of some sort would be exciting! Count me inn!)

Greetings from the rainy west coast of Norway

Hey Graeme.. Its been a long time since I've visited your website & I am thrilled with all the new projects - especially GRYPHON, if that is still on.. Pray God that it is.. When the album's completed, maybe you'll be up for an interview on my adio show? I'd love to be the guy in NY that gets the word out on the radio here, so please keep us up to date.. Very Best Regards, Joe

Oh boy, I'd crawl over broken glass just to be in the same room as the four, or five, of you strike up the intro to Second Spasm or Midnight Mushrumps! You'll have to make it at the weekend as all us lifelong Gryphon fans - have you seen just how many people have signed the gustbook at the Gryphon website? - will be flying in from various parts of the globe. I'll sell the kids if I have to. Oh, wait a miniute, the wife tells me I already have.
Some kind of fan-meet should be organised for around the time too, and a fan/band 'buy the fan a pint' session.
It could be a seriously wonderful gatthering...your old music still sounds inspiring and unique today. Well, this morning, actually.
Take care. If anyone out there's ever down in Seville, Spain, drop me a line.
Kindest regards

Great site you've got here! I still use pieces of yours as examples of melodic guitar soloing to young players in my studio. They are suitably impressed I might add!
Many thanks,

My God, How do you know that? You're absolutely right - before Gryphon I was in a band called Cherrywood with Tony Sullivan and a girl called Sue, adjoined later by Simon Windmill.
What is your surname? Please email me! (See Contacts page.)

Wasn't there a very early band called Cherrywood?

Hi Mike,

There is a possibility of a Home Service reunion in a year or two...

So, don't hold your breath, but, on a level playing field, at the end of the day, there could be a bird in the bush, or a solo in the scarecrow, again.

How, in Belgium, will I recognise you? By the way, I like Belgium very much.

Thanks for your post,

It is funny, I recall an entry reading "Graeme Who?" from a certain Dave Oberlé, (peutêtre un Batteriste Francais?) 3 years ago (in an old spam infested GT webguesting book) ...one wonders what further thoughts this present DO might have re the current GT? Or is he stuck in the timing warp? Est-ce que le 'sour grapes' ici et visible? JB
