A familiar name in the Canterbury scene, Dave Stewart's career reached unexpected highs in the 1980s when he teamed up with Spirogyra's Barbara Gaskin for an unlikely cover. In 2023, as the couple continued making "intelligent pop,” they discussed the unexpected spark that led to their longstanding musical and romantic relationship.
Prog readers would have been forgiven for raising an eyebrow in 1981 upon seeing Dave Stewart – previously keyboardist with Egg, Hatfield And The North and National Health – sharing a stage on Top Of The Pops with The Zombies’ Colin Blunstone.
