<<by musical temperment i suggest that he found his musical core as part of the canterbury scene. (and other places as well through the years) >> Again, I'm not sure what you mean by "found his musical core". He was in the original Soft Machine lineup (which I assume is what you're talking about when referencing the so-called "Canterbury scene", which as I understand it, never really existed) but that only lasted a couple years. He has frequently worked with English musicians, like Mike Howlett, Steve Hillage, and Steffi Sharpstrings, but he's also worked with musicians from other places as well. <<and to those unfamilar with daevid's work, it is very loop based, greatly because of his bowed guitar work with metal objects.>> Yeah, his "glissando guitar" technique. When I first heard that on the Gong and Steve Hillage records, I thought it was a mellotron or something. It wasn't until I saw Daevid in concert in 91 and I saw him doing and I thought, "THAT'S what that sound is!". ===== May you never thirst!
