BIOGRAPHY:
Great bassist and composer, Bruce Lynch appears in many fantastic albums.
Bruce Lynch was born in New Zealand in 1948. He started playing bass in several bands from Auckland, but after marrying singer Suzanne Donaldson (known as Suzanne Lynch), they went to England around 1973. He's also father to Andy Lynch (guitarist in New Zealand bands Zed and Atlas).
CAT STEVENS BAND
This was Cat Stevens Band in March 1974:
This was Cat Stevens Band for one of his tours in 1974:
Linda Lewis and Jim Cregan toured supporting Cat Stevens during 1974, so Cregan, Lewis and Max Middleton also appeared as a guest playing in some songs by Cat. There's a live album recorded from that tour, Saturnight (Live in Tokyo), recorded in June 1974. Originally, it was released only in Japan, as a benefit album in behalf of UNICEF. But the great news is that in 2001, this album would see a worldwide reissue on CD.
And still another different lineup for Cat Stevens Band in 1974, without backing singers:
For his tour in November 1975, Cat Stevens reverted to a smaller backing band:
Please, I´d like to know if Chico Batera and Mark Warner played in the band in that same tour. Does anybody know?
This was the big backing band for Cat Stevens´ Earth tour in February 1976:
In September 2004, a live CD (and DVD) has been released from those concerts, both called Majikat.
