A superb musician on oboe and fiddle, he was best known as a member of Bellowhead but he also played with Faustus and Belshazzar's Feast. He was 51. I believe that the cause of death was a serious fall. |

18 Sep 22 - 02:41 PM (#4152871) Subject: RE: 2022 Obit: Paul Sartin (1971-15 Sept 2022) From: GUEST,Mick Tems I’m shocked and saddened with this awful news. Paul was a superb musician, a composer, an arranger, a musical director and one of the good, caring guys. He co-founded Whitchurch Folk Club and specialised in fiddle and oboe; he was a major part of Bellowhead, Belshazzar’s Feast and Faustus. Years ago, I took a picture of the two Pauls (Sartin and Hutchinson) when Belshazzar’s Feast played in Llantrisant Folk Club; the picture totally captured his impish grinning face, and it’s emblazoned in the Folk Club banner to this day. Here’s to a great, brilliant singer and player; deepest condolences to his family, to Doug and Sue and all the musicians who had the absolute pleasure of working with him. |

And his singing of “Home, Lads, Home” had many an audience member reaching for their tissue handkerchiefs. |
