Re: Obits
Very sad news. The UFO albums he is on are amongst their best and tracks from them were played on the band's farewell tour. I will always remember Paul Chapman from the gig at the Colston Hall on the Making Contact tour. They were so good in Cardiff that a friend and I decided to travel to Bristol to see them again shortly afterwards. They did not go down as well in Bristol as Cardiff and my friend and I recieved an on stage acknowledgement from Chapman as we were the only ones at the front with air guitars out.
