... as was (of course) Rudolph.  Wasn't Turrington in the Winkies, who
backed Eno on the (awesome!) "Seven Deadly Finns" 7"?  And were supposed to
be his backing band on tour (before his lung collapsed)?

Thanks for the info on Andy Roberts (I never would have known).  Any idea
who Mike Nichols was (was he in the Winkies w/Turrington or am I barking up
the wrong tree)?
