What early 70's rock bands had violins?

What about Jimmy Page and Alvin Lee? Mr. Page actually used (uses?) a bow on his Les Paul. Alvin Lee makes his Gibson ES-335 sound very much like a violin on the Ten Years After album "Cricklewood Green - Love like a Man".

Dweller, I was just going to mention Ten Years After. "A Space in Time", a great album, uses violins on some of the tracks. And speaking of guitars sounding like violins, Eric Clapton and Duane Allmon do a good job of that on the instrumental part of Layla.

i am not sure but I think I remember "city boy" using violins on some of their stuff.

I listened to the Scarlet Rivera LP last night. She's the one who played on Dylans Desire LP and toured with the Rolling Thunder Review.

She has a very distinctive sound, and the LP is obviously violin driven. The sound was very good. It's not just violin though, there is a solid bass and drum underpinning with a little vocal thrown in there occasionally. It also has guitar and some piano.

It will have to be found used since I'm sure it has been out of print for 25 years. I just bought a copy for $1.00.
