Sorry to hear this Bill. He was still writing reviews for 'Jazzwise' and The Standard until very recently. RIP.

Certainly knew his bop/hard-bop, that's for sure.

We used to go to hear the Tubby Hayes Quartet with Terry Shannon, Jeff Clyne and Bill Eyden. It certainly left its mark.

I also remember him playing the Parker "Lover Man" solo note for note on his alto as well as Jimmy Heath's "For Minors Only". The apprenticeship of a lifelong bopper!
