Neither the contributions above nor the Guardian obituary say much about Tom's love of Swedish music. (And there's a small spelling mistake in the obit: "Latår" should be "Låtar".) For many years what he played for pleasure was mainly Swedish and American music on the fiddle. Apart from paid gigs it was only as an occasional rare treat that he would bring his guitar or banjo. His skill on the fiddle did not match that on the guitar and banjo but it was what he loved. He came regularly to play for our Scandinavian dance group in London and we were glad to have him there.
