A Question
When did Rolf Harris come up with the wobbleboard? I only ask because there's one on the song "Hot House Of Omagararshid" by The Yardbirds, from the LP Roger The Engineer (1966), and if they got the idea from Rolf I feel that he should take his rightful place in the proto-psychedelia pantheon alongside Tommy Hall, virtuoso jug blower from The 13th Floor Elevators, as these two instruments represent two of the earliest manifestations in rock of the urge to wibble, wub and wommm yr way to cosmic transcendence...

Add to that Sun Arise, which to my mind is a proto-drone rock masterpiece, and his participation in The Dreaming, Kate Bush's best and weirdest album, and I think Rolf's place in the pantheon is inarguable.
