THIS WEEK: MARY KELLY (part 1 in a 2 part series)

With the recent release of MARILOINS 'HOLIDAYS IN EDEN' many people have been asking that million dollar question

'A GREAT ALBUM BOYS, BUT WHERES THE PROGGIN' KEYBOARDS, MAN?'

Some have said that during the recording of the album, the bands engineerer forgot to prees the record button during our Marks MELLOTRON solos. Others have spectaculated that Mark was too busy worrying about his painful foot illness which has plagued him throughout MARILLIONS fruity existance. One cruel rumour was that his hair fell out onto and into his keyboard, mere hours before he was due to put down his progmasmic solo (see picture).

Silhobit investigates decided to seek the truth, and answer the PROGRESSIVE question "WHAT HAPPENED TO THOSE SQUIDDLEY, WIDDLEY KEYBOARDS?"

To unlock that secret from MORILLIONS Progressive treasure chest we had to contact our old freind TREVOR DAWKINS. To those of you unfamiliar with this impotant, perhaps essential part of PROGRESSIVE rock history, look no further than the first JADIS albums. TREV was the first JADIS bass player, but more importantly he is MARK KELLYS PERSONAL ROADIE, but even more impotantly he is MARK KELLYS FRIEND.

As STEVE HACKETT once said 'If anyone knows anything about ‘dark' MARK KELLY, then its TREV DAWKINS, fake Rolex n all'.
