General notes

[information provided by researcher] After seven years in Sydney, Gwyn returned to Adelaide with New Zealand drummer Rick Tredrea. Picking up bassist Laurie Height (of The Fools), they blitzed the Adelaide scene for 12 months, being noticed along the way by touring artists such as Cheap Trick's vocalist Robin Zander and Mick Fleetwood, who sat in with Gwyn one night. At around this time Gwyn opened for Rory Gallagher at The Old Lion in North Adelaide. In 1993 Gwyn conducted blues clinics at the Melbourne Guitar Show and Melbourne Music Expo and recorded his first CD, Feel The Heat with Rick Tredrea and bassist Geoff Brown. The day it was released, they toured Victoria and South Australia with Albert Lee and Steve Morse.
