The death of Pat Crumly on Sept 28, whilst on holiday in Italy, is particularly poignant for those of us who knew him through his connection with Newcastle Big Band. He played tenor on some of the tracks on the Big Band's first (and only) LP as well as playing with them at Pau Jazz Festival in France.

As always, I'm grateful to Russell for drawing this sad event to my attention.
I saw Pat with his quartet at the much lamented Blue Jay Jazz in Shephedrs Bush. A tour de force set, including some laconically delivered jokes, and a stunning version of Good Morning Heartache. A superb musician.
