Hi His Majesty, wondering if you may have further info regarding the Alexis Korner biography by Harry Shapiro. In it, he mentions Alexis organized rehearsals at Cotchford Farm after Brian left the band. Some of the musicians mentioned were the late Vince Crane, Carl Palmer, John Mayall, Mitch Mitchell and Micky Waller. Do you have any info as to how these sessions went, was anything recorded
