Alan Gowen

"A good friend, I played a lot with him; it was very sad when he died. His problem was being too modest. He could have become much more famous, but he had many doubts about his way of playing: he would sit at home writing and playing all the time, and he made truly good music, technically he was an excellent musician. But he couldn’t sell himself, he wasn’t like Vangelis or someone like that." (Hugh Hopper)
