It is sad, and in his memory I've started a post for those of us who would like to start a game of Mornington Crescent.

ISIHAC will never be the same again.  I'm going to miss Humph too.

Nice one Ollie.   :)

Really sad. We are listening to a CD that we bought at a concert of his band last year. So glad we went now- will be listening to ISIHAC tomorrow lunchtime. He really was a unique talent. Have to confess I had a tear in  my eye this morning when they played a recording of him playing "Black Butterfly"  to end the tributes on radio 4.

Very sad news.  I used to go and see him playing at the Black Prince, Bexley in the 1960's.
