sidewinder Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Just noticed this sad news. RIP - she was a fine tenor player with a big tone. Remember seeing her in Humphrey Lyttleton's 1970s band (the one with Bruce Turner and Mike Pyne) and being very impressed. Her style was a bit more 'modernist' than Humph but it fitted in perfectly in that lineup. Might have even seen her in Bill Lewington's as well - sort of sounds familiar. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/10953906/Kathy-Stobart-obituary.html Edited July 9, 2014 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She will be sadly missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Lark Ascending Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Saw her with Humph in the 90s. Very impressed. A trailblazer in a very male profession. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
