Martyn Whites's just posted this on melodeon.net

I have just received the sad news that Doug Adams passed away yesterday in Guys Hospital where he had been fighting lung cancer.

Many of you will know Doug from the many sessions, mainly around the London area. He was also a familiar face at festivals all over the country, the last of these being Sidmouth and Dartmoor this year.

He was a fine melodeon player and a lovely person, he will be missed by the many people that knew him."

He will indeed. RIP Doug.

Ironically I read this news while listening to a trial mix of an album put together by some local session musicians to raise funds for a cancer charity.
