I worked with Alan down here in Solihull and was greatly influenced by him. He was a great guy. A man's man. I was just thinking about him a few minutes ago and Googled his name, to discover this sad news.

We had a lovely service and played his music in the church, it sounded great on the church sound system :) Yes the Alleycats was his first band, I have a great photo but not sure how to post it here. We talked about his music in the eulogy and enjoyed reminiscing old Barbara Palliserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01786114510223161432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2890708154880054256.post-56120886593702201122015-09-12T20:15:15.650+01:002015-09-12T20:15:15.650+01:00Sorry to hear about this great jazz player he will...Sorry to hear about this great jazz player he will be missed Margaret and Barry Aitchison Barrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2890708154880054256.post-20497375989875770312015-09-12T12:03:57.666+01:002015-09-12T12:03:57.666+01:00Condolences to Alan's family.Condolences to Alan's family.Roy Willis (on F/b)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2890708154880054256.post-61945424946621609742015-09-12T11:23:33.278+01:002015-09-12T11:23:33.278+01:00I knew that Alan had heart problems for a number o...I knew that Alan had heart problems for a number of years but nevertheless the news is a shock. Alan was a fine pianist, - he had many influences but Erroll Garner and Teddy Wilson were his favourites. His version of Autumn Leaves was always guaranteed to be a high spot of the session, and as you said, he had a wide range of styles - I think Derek's comment sums it up nicely.
