Aggie87's post reminds me that I have twice seen Org member David Weiss play, but have not "met" him.

Interesting to hear about the Stan Tracey biog. A few years ago, not long after the death of Stan, I spoke to Clark about his Dad, telling him I was currently reading autobiogs by Peter King and Vic Ash which mentioned him. As if as an afterthought, Clark ran after me to say I'd have a new biog to read, as he would be writing one about Stan. Having heard nothing of this for a few years, I assumed that the idea had been forgotten, but apparently not. Yes, I shall be reading it.

Of those I saw Rendell and Skidmore, latter with Humphrey Lyttelton. Nice to think I saw the Skidmores, father and son - same for the Traceys, come to think of it.

Agreed it's a dandy. But with only 100 LPs left, you must feel naked! Now playing:
