Dundee jazz-rock outfit, Elegy, were on the go in the mid 70's era.

Photo line-up, L to R - JOHN DILLON (trumpet) - SANDY ROBERTSON (drums) - NEIL CONNEL (bass) - STEVE McDONALD (guitar) - BRUCE RAYNOR (keyboards) and squatting down at the front is PETER McGLONE (sax).

They played regularly in town and have also gigged up at the University supporting prog-jazz band, Hatfield & The North, that was in May 1975.

The photo was taken in '74 outside The Ambassador just before they set off for London to take part in a Melody Maker band contest - which they were 3rd.

After Elegy split, an offshoot sprouted into another local jazz-rock outfit called Europe.

Europe played locally and around other parts of Scotland.

Members were - BRUCE RAYNER (keyboards) - PETER VETTESE (keyboards) - GLEN JONES (drums) - ROB ADAMS (bass) - JOHN SINGERS (guitar)

You may remember Rob Adams as the chap who worked in Forbes record shop in Commercial Street.
