I've just found out. He was a big name in harpsichord circles.

I've just found out. He was a big name in harpsichord circles.

Googled him and still have no real idea who he is but it is suggested he died on 24 September 2014, so my belated condolences.

Should that be 24 September 1714?

Argh!

This is the most depressing thread I've read in a long time...

Bert Kwok!

That's a great shame ! 

Must admit, though, I thought he died some time ago.
Farewell Cato.

Cheers - Phil

This is the most depressing thread I've read in a long time... 

Dance like no-one is watching
Sing like no-one is listening
Love like your heart has never been broken
Plan like you'll live forever
But live each day like it's your last ...
Because sooner than you'd like that will be true!

[Westmarcher]

Bert Kwok!

Peter Sellers will be nervous in cloud land tonight.

[Steve J]

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Impressed how long Dave Swarbrick survived... But another great gone.

now Burt Kwok and Dave Swarbrick I can feel sad for as they re part of my youth memories from different fields of endeavour.
