David 'Dave' J Ball (born 30 March 1950 in Handsworth, Birmingham, England) is a guitar player who is currently resident of New Zealand but working in various parts of the World.
In 1971 he joined Procol Harum, replacing Robin Trower who had left he group to form his own band, after he saw an advert in Melody Maker. He can be heard on the group's live (and best selling) album, Procol Harum Live with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra, but left the group during the recording sessions for their 1973 album Grand Hotel. He formed the group Bedlam with his brother Dennis and drummer Cozy Powell, who released an album on Chrysalis Records, but the group disbanded after a brief period of time. He also recorded with Long John Baldry on Baldry's 1973 album "Good to be Alive".[1]
