Hi Matt, thanks for your reply. So sorry to hear that you're dad passed away. As I said, he was a nice bloke and would have been good to reconnect with him. It wasn't me that bought the ebo copy. That must have been after my time. Take care and remember the good times, Sam

Hi, I've only just seen this. My name is Sam and I was a private pupil of your dad back in the early/mid 1970s. He had a bedsit in North London and I used to go there after work. I remember joking with him about going to gigs on his bike, and did he trail his speaker cabinet behind? I eventually bought the speaker cabinet from him (which was built to his spec - he said that the cabinet had a "proper" name. I think it was Basis, but I might have got that wrong). I used it for many years. We also kept disagreeing about the names of notes. He called them by the American names (quarter note, half note, etc) and I used what he called the old fashioned names: crotchet/quaver. He dep'd for me when my wife gave birth and the band did one or two gigs with him in Essex. The band was called CHB. I remember your dad being a nice, intelligent and thoughtful man. Very sad to here this news. If he remembers me say hello. Sam
