BajaProg 2004 by Richard Sinclair & Glass
In 2004 I was booked into the BajaProg Festival in Mexicali, Mexico. Having gotten to know the band Glass through my participation in their 2002 and 2003 Progman Cometh concerts, I invited them to accompany and support me at BajaProg.

We spent a week rehearsing in a rental house on the beach in Ventura, Southern California, sleeping late, swapping lies, and working out what we would play. It was like a working vacation for me.

"You know what the big problem was at the Baja gig? We only had six days to rehearse with Richard. And in those six days we had to not only teach Elaine the parts in "Broken Oars" that she needed to learn, but also we had to learn Richard's songs which are deceptively very complex. They're not easy tunes. Most of that recording the playing is pretty good, and as Greg pointed out, Jerry's playing is great. But there were a couple tunes where we made a lot of mistakes. I'm hoping he edits those out."

The leading voice of the Canterbury Scene. Beginning with the Wilde Flowers, on to Caravan, Hatfield & the North, Camel and all his recent group efforts, Richard Sinclair's singing and bass playing have been a constant source of delight for lovers of Canterbury music. A deep, low voice, a talent for memorable melodies few can match, plus an imaginative and fluid technique on the bass and guitar.
