Aye your dead right Gallus, John was a lovely man and so full of enthusiasm for the music. I remember well, and I'm sure you will have had the same experience, of being asked by John to "come an' listen tae this wee song ah've got" and he wounld put his hand ower his ear and give you a personal performance, always keen to hear what you thought of his work, did you get the feeling?
Sadly missed.
