Chuck Nessa Posted December 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) First met him back in the middle '70s - very nice fellow. He was also a great accompanist as displayed in these discs: Edited December 18, 2020 by Chuck Nessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted December 18, 2020 Report Share Posted December 18, 2020 This is a big shock. He was playing fantastically well at that Strata East London concert several years ago (2016?) and looked in good shape then. RIP, a great talent and a very nice guy by all accounts. 7 hours ago, Peter Friedman said: Very sorry to hear this sad news. By coincidence just played his solo at Maybeck CD yesterday.
