According to the report, "We don't believe he was ever married and we have identified an ex-girlfriend but she is currently abroad."
A broad, a chick, a babe, a bird...whatever they want to call her, they need to get ahold of her soon.

Edwards played on Eldorado, one of the most influencial rock albums for me.

Stuff like this always reminds me how little control we really have over our lives. You can eat right, watch your weight, keep your cholesterol down, floss, wear condoms, use hearing protection, and ... hay bale. Game over. |

I saw him play with ELO in about 1973 at Leeds Poly as it was then, Leeds Metropolitan University as it is now. I don't remember Michael in particular but I remember the night well, ElO played a blinding set. It was a students only night but I blagged my way in by helping the drummer with something on his kit. He was outside the loading door struggling with his kick drum pedal and needed a pair of pliers, I was parked nearby with tools in my car. I helped him fix it, then helped the rest of the band carry their gear in and just stayed in there. |
