Subject: RE: Obit: Don Partridge (22 Sept 2010)-funeral Oct 4
Hello Heather. I am not Alan Young. I am a "youngster" of fifty-five, who started out in the second generation of buskers back in the eighties. I met Don only once, as I mentioned earlier. He did a gig at my folk club when I was at college. I met Alan Young, Robin and the band (forget what they were called) up in Stockholm in 1982 or 1983 - I can't remember exactly. All buskers know Phil, of course, although I have not seen him in donkeys' years. Phil has a page on Facebook: Phil Free : I heard from Loz Ramsden that Phil is well and living in Ealing. Loz has pictures up from Don's wake and quite a lot of the old crowd were there. Alan Young was there, Phil, of course, Moti - and you will probably know some others. No doubt you also knew several people whom I am still in contact with. You are welcome to contact me at: alanabit@web.de   if you wish.
