Thread Name: 2009 Obit: Jim Couza RIP (UK)
Subject: RE: Obit: Jim Couza RIP 2 August 2009
I'm A Walt Michael man myself,but Jim came a pretty close second as a hammered dulcimer player & singer.I remember fondly seeing him at a Country Fair at Kingston Lacey in Dorset a few years back,in his "Cripple in a Hovel" guise,complete with fly on his nose and wooden crutches---somewhat ironic ,really.Having busted a string,he took out his roll of piano -wire,& asked for some cutters----I was priveleged to lend him my "Leatherman" !!
          What can I say about Jim Couza ?? Just " Once seen & heard, never forgotten " !!
                   RIP
