Bruford / UK
Son Alex born, July 31st.
Apart from a pub gig and one BBC TV show with his own group, the 16 months between December 1976 and April 1978 pass without any other live performances.
The hurdle of the first album “Feels Good To Me” is negotiated successfully at Trident in London.
“ UK” is founded by John Wetton who invites Bill, and suggests they poach Eddie Jobson from Frank Zappa. Sensing this will lead too far into the realm of pop music, Bill suggests Allan Holdsworth as fourth member and counter-weight, and an album is cut at Trident in November.
