Surely Europe's greatest Blues guitarist and a man who has inspired me and hundred's of people to share his love of the blues. I interviewed Rory in 74 and his generosity and sincere and friendly help will never be forgotten. A man who's music has given me so much pleasure and strength in the past 30 years. I will always love his passion for the music we both love, as many around the world who saw him share. A unique and modest man, almost shy off stage, private and reserved, he did not crave the spotlight, but the spotlight picked him out in a life that was cut short. Oh how we miss Rory and his wonderful music, his light has never diminished but the world although a richer place for knowing him is a poorer place without him.

Post Christmas blues.......
If returning to work after a week off was not bad enough. while the rest of the nation shops, and swills, we now have the spectacle of the annual 'rail song and dance'.... fresh on the trail of a price increase , and a Sunday service after 6pm we have the spectacle of no trains tommorow in anticipation of snow...... Good job I am a moaney old git, I think I am a paid up member of the 'weather whinner's club.. appreciate it is easy to whinge but christ, when are we going to get a decent transport sytem in North kent. that works.
Had to cancel the gig of Glenn Tillbrooke tonight at the anchor, still there is always nest week, and Larry miller is up at the Beverwood
