Rip. Barrie ( Baz) Ascroft, great bloke, great player, and hugely supportive to me. X
RIP Barrie. Great Bloke great Musician will be missed.
A great talent RIP Barrie.
Glad you were there to share the vibe, Lance. An odd night, knowing the space at the centre of it, but still enjoyable
A nicer bloke you will never meet.
i took that photo of Baz and sent it to Jude. From 2 years ago. Rare picture of him smiling
