Obits in all the British broadsheets but full tribute, photos, messages on Chris Barber website He also played piano on Lonnie's Diggin' my potatoes.

On it was Ottilie Patterson singing St Louis Blues which had a trumpet obbligato played by Pat Halcox which made the hair on my arms stand up. It was then I realised the power of music and I have never looked back |
