Geoff Leigh is an English jazz and progressive rock musician, playing primarily soprano sax and flute. He was a member of the English avant-rock group Henry Cow and founded several bands himself, including Red Balune, Random Bob, Black Sheep, Mirage, and Ex-Wise Heads. In 1981 Leigh moved back to Rotterdam  and formed the Kontakt Mikrofoon Orkest, featuring once again Colin McClure, Aloijsius van Saus (vocals, guitar, alto sax, keyboards, electronics), Gert van Seters (drums), and Jos Valster (saxophones and clarinets). This very short-lived group recorded one single on the MCCB label, before splitting in late 1981. Excellent experimental post punk tracks. Do The Residue was released as a 7″ by MCCB (MCCB 004) in 1981.
