My Take

David O'List is the eternal almost-legend, and that is precisely why I find him fascinating. He played in The Attack and The Nice, sat in Roxy Music before Phil Manzanera took the chair, and even deputised in Jethro Tull and Pink Floyd. Born in 1948 in London, he was right at the heart of British psychedelia, yet always seemed to stand half a step outside stardom. I have a soft spot for craftsmen like him, the players who were unmistakably there in rooms where history was made. His career is a glorious footnote that deserves to be read aloud.

Overview
