Thanks for reaching out! And thanks for the info on Stormcock I have not heard that yet. Co-designed by Ben Harper!?!? I def will head over to your page and check the Violap out.

Yes do check it out! She's a beautiful instrument!
Roy Harper & Jimmy Page did a lot of recording together. Their stuff on Roy's albums is sublime, but in the 80's they did an entire album together. Unfortunately, it was too influenced by some of the cliche 80's sounds and isn't their best work, imo. But as I said, their acoustic work on Roy's albums in the 70's is sublime!

I'll def check out Roy's Work and Jimmy's and I agree with your assessment of the cliche 80s stuff - they were kinda plagued by that post Zep. Can't wait to peruse your page!
