John R. T. Davies has passed

[Christiern]

I just heard that R.T. Davies has died at the age of 77. There was no better sound engineer for restoration of vintage recordings.

I just discovered that there is already a thread devoted to this sad news. Can't delete this one, but someone ought to.

It's double sad news with two threads! J. R. really helped the early jazz speak to many of us and I will always have his work in my collection.

Chris, you CAN delete this. Look at the bottom of the page you'll see "Moderation Options." As the creator of the thread you should be able to delete it following those options.

Well, until it is, here is the thread in the audio forum...

I have tried to delete this thread twice, using the recommended "Moderation Options," but it won't go away. BTW, both failed attempts were done when the thread consisted solely of my initial post.

Ah well. . . two threads about this devoted jazz fan and excellent engineer-musician is NOT a bad thing!
