Trigger, comprised of
Roy Harper
Chris Spedding
Bill Bruford
there are many other Triggers !
made one album and split
As I love all three of them it could be wonderful - or not
Closest I can get is Roy Harper BBC Tapes, Volume 5: 1975-1978 with just 3 tracks from Trigger
Nowt on YT or Spotty

I thought Trigger was just the name of the backing band he used to make 'HQ' and then subsequently tour to promote it, Mike. I don't think there's anything else that you haven't already found.

Thanks very much chaps. Better detective work than moi !
Got carried away with
"In 1975, Harper formed Trigger, a backing group including guitarist Chris Spedding and drummer Bill Bruford; however, after releasing just one LP, the unit disbanded
-from Allmusic
Did a braino and missed out "HQ". It's in light blue you see
In 1975, Harper formed Trigger, a backing group including guitarist Chris Spedding and drummer Bill Bruford; however, after releasing just one LP, HQ, the unit disbanded
I have HQ, says "Roy Harper", not "Trigger"
Only rate it 6/10. Will listen again
That Knebworth box set is a big one int it ?
27 CDs

Only 6/10?!?!?!?!?!?
But.....but....but ...
...It's got 'Hallucinating Light' on it. Which would be the best thing Roy Harper ever recorded, by my reckoning.
And 'An Old Cricketer' too

I saw Harper support Pink Floyd at Knebworth in 1975.

I've been known to put that track on repeat and play it all day - I literally never tire of it! (An activity for an otherwise empty house though!)

Astonishing recording for its age.

Very useful chaps. Thanks again Slinger searching for bands on Discogs is obvious - now he's told me ! |
