Sad to hear of George Richardson's death, I knew him and the boys very well in the sixties, He was also a friend of my piano player Eddie Farrow.sad loss!!
Sorry to learn of the passing of George Richardson
Very nice person and a very easy musician to work with. Often pop into the Ramside Hall and had lunch with his wife on a Sunday afternoon.
Will be truly missed. R.I.P
Raymond Newton Double Bass/Bass Guitar/ cello
George had a history of health issues since having a heart valve operation about 25 years ago, but managed to get back playing again with MSJ with whom he was playing until a few years ago. However he had a fall a few weeks ago and broke his hip, he was admitted to hospital, but his condition deteriorated over a three week period and he died about a week ago in hospital.
