Over the years, Malcolm played with many local bands including the River City Jazzmen, the Maine St. Jazzmen and Rendezvous Jazz.
He was also accompanist for Ponteland Ladies Choir.
I remember him well from the Breda Jazz Festival back in the 1980s where he was part of the award winning River City Jazzmen (see photo).
A fine pianist who will be sadly missed. Lance

Thank you for leaving this comment, we have received many lovely comments about Dad’s love of music and his piano playing, love the photo, Jo x
So sad to learn of Malcolm’s passing. He was my music teacher at Ashington Tech during 1973/74. He got me through my music “O-Level”. I still fondly remember him; his exuberance, his Triumph TR7 and is appearance on Blue Peter with the College choir. A huge Beatles fan; if memory serves “The Night Before” was the song they performed on the program. He always sported the Blue Peter Badge proudly on his jacket lapel after that. Such an upbeat and positive guy, who made music lessons so enjoyable. Thank you Malcolm, you were an inspiration.
