John Helliwell. Supertramp Sun July 12th 09

It's been some time since I bumped into THE sax man.
John eats & breathes jazz & returned from Malibu to take
exams at the Royal Northern College of Music, revealing
his birthday along with colleagues young enough to be his
kids ..... no problem.
There was the gig last January in Geneva with Creme Anglaise
and a guest turned up to do a number... it was Kevin Spacey who
produced a creditable Bobby Darin tune or two!
John was recently called upon to present an award to Chris de
Burgh in Munich & soon it will be Kaltenburg for Excalibur, closely
followed by Italy for a little Puccini.
We had many calls for some new music from Supertramp, to which
John looked optimistic but of course, it's not just down to him.
