Derek Jewell looks to the future this week with three groups. Jean-Luc Ponty's personal style is (according to the handouts) 'bringing the violin out of the 20th century into the 21st' but whatever that may mean, his new band is certainly impressive, as extracts from their album Aurora show. Two freshly-arrived bands, both in the 10cc/Supertramp mould, complete the bill: City Boy from Birmingham, and Styx from America.
