I've just being reading all the above. I was in the background of many of these wonderful stories. I knew him as an audience does for many years and enjoyed his wonderful humour. His musicianship was both unique and exceptional.

In the late 80s I began to sing at his Jam Session, which although run very well since I still think of as his night. He encouraged me to sing and I thank him for that. I was heavily involved with researching for the NUM around the same time and we'd have good, deep, angry political conversations about the whole thing and the political trends. He cared so much about the underdog. He wrote a song for us to record called Albion Tragedy, a Glory, Glory, Hallelluya but on the plight of the UK collier. I'll bring the lyrics along tomorrow, to share.

In the early 90s I remember picking him up from home, laughing with Sue and the gang of three.

I remember Wez chasing Nick around with a broom once... he deserved it! What a man... what fond memories...

Hi Sue, sorry I've not been in touch of late. See y'all tomorrow.
