VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR - FIRST EDITION

Manchester University, 1967. This is the only photograph I know of that shows the proto-group or Ur-band, consisting of Peter Hammill and myself. This poptastic duo did one or two gigs together even after teaming up with Organist Nick Pearne, since the dear fellow didn't have an Organ at the time.
