This is a real shock. I have known Keith almost as long as I've been around the folk clubs - since about 1971, I think. Great bloke with a great sense of humour; I'll never forget his appearance on the Frodsham Folk Club's float in th Frodsham Carnival in the mid seventies. The theme was 'Henry V111', and Keith was wielding the executioner's axe, trying to behead the Queen, with people shouting "left a bit...right a bit". He used to do a great rendition of 'Wor Nannie's a Mayzor'. He's going to be sorely missed at the club. My condolences to all his relatives and friends.
