    I think Wakeman at times used a bespoke Mander Pipe Organ. There was a mention and picture of it in a Keyboard Magazine interview in the late 70s. Not sure if it was used on that tour.

    You are correct. It was released in the early 1980s. I still have my vinyl copy of Bodast Featuring Steve Howe with the photo of the guy digging up the master tapes on the cover.
