I saw him when he was with King Crimson at the old Fillmore East many brain cells ago. IIRC they were the opening act for Joe Cocker back in Nov 1969. Seats there $3.50-4.50 & 5.50. Two big acts backed with Joshuas' Lights made for a great show. Great bang for your buck back in those days. Ironically enough, his biggest hit as a solo was a Christmas Tune called "Father Christmas" I believe was the title. I'm sure we'll be hearing that a lot this season.
