 Mel Collins, saxophonist and flutist on several essential albums of the early KCrimsonian era, as well as with dozens of other groups; a character always very dear to me for his taste in tackling pieces that certainly don’t lend themselves to sax and flute, but somehow become instruments one can’t do without.
