Last Monday I got literally and metaphorically taken for a ride by one of the chief offenders, Dave Mason, who wrote and sings the group's latest hit, " Hole In My Shoe." Driving out of Pen Richmond Mews, off London's Dean Street, in his shooting brake, Dave was somewhat surprised to find me jumping up and down in front of his bonnet flapping my arms. Having carefully explained that there was an interview fixed for 12.30 pm, Dave thoughtfully stroked the four stitches inserted over his right eye (he fainted and fellover recently at home) and declared:" I thought that was yesterday." The result of the ensuing explanations and " traffic" jam was that I found myself in his car on the way to "Take Six " boutique, where he intended to buy some green trousers to wear on their first " live " appearance-at the opening of a Swedish tour, for which they were due to fly out that night. Within five minutes of talking to Dave about the pop business you can guarantee to find yourself in- volved in a discussion on the vices and vicissitudes of World Sdence, CONTROLLABLE Art and Philosophy.
