From: Boris Liberman
In my ears, Vanessa Mae is far better violin player than Bond. I should
also mention that Mik Kaminski of ELO (although he's no woman) seems to
predate both. Few years ago I went to the concert of "Orchestra" (some
members of ELO and others of ELO II) and he played his blue electric
violin magnificently.
