...I can play of flute!
I don't work at it, just mess around from time to time.
But, Ian made flute cool as a rock instrument.
Fun fact: Martin Barre, their long-time guitarist & Ian's musical collaborator, also plays flute. So, the both Plat guitar & flute.

A friend owned a music store. Sold a lot of instruments to school bands. He joked about the kids first attempts at playing the flute…they would turn blue blowing .
