Steve Hillage: Live Herald
Chris Welch, Melody Maker, 3 February 1979
ONE OF THE MOST pleasant incidents I recall from last year was an afternoon spent in a summery open-air cafe in Notting Hill with Steve Hillage, who talked passionately about his music and beliefs with the disarming modesty that conceals true strength. That same strength and charm is carried into Steve's writing and performances.
