How marvellous to hear from a bona fide, genuine Steve Bingham. Not Steve .... Bingham you understand - don't get too excited - just plain old Steve Bingham. The one who, according to his website, The Independent called an "extraordinary performer" (interestingly it doesn't say in what capacity). The website which has a frankly disturbing picture of some sort of Boys From Brazil experiment gone wrong, with dozens of Steves gaily Binghaming around the parks of Norfolk. Steve Bingham who has the self-effacing good humour to take a pretty stupid post on my part a couple of years back in the benign spirit in which it was intended. Well played Sir.

As a classical music Philistine, I was all geared up to point people towards Steve's site without being able to recommend anything myself, but his YouTube clips of his looping performances of While My Guitar Gently Weeps and Philip Glass are simply stunning. I only wish I had more than three sporadic readers who might find them as a result of this.
