Compie gli anni Guy Evans, batterista dei VdGG


Compie gli anni oggi, 17 giugno, Guy Evans, batterista e "generatore di ritmo" dei mitici Van Der Graaf Generator, anche lui di Birmingham (vera fabbrica di batteristi), come John Bonham e Barriemore Barlow.

Oltre ad essere un bravissimo percussionista Guy, come David Jackson, si occupa della realizzazione di musica per bambini disabili.

Poco appariscente, ha suonato e collaborato con molti artisti (elencati a fine articolo)

Happy Birthday Guy!
