I have not heard Steeleye Span but I'm sure that when a man who played with fine musicians like Nigel Pegrum and Rick Kemp, he will be missed. RIP ------------- http://www.formspring.me/Aragorn224" rel="nofollow - Trendsetter win! The search for nonexistent perfection. |

| yes very sad. I just listened to his Summer Solstice album with Maddy...delightful. He lived a full life, leaving music behind in the 80s when he felt that he had done as much as he could, and becoming a wildlife photographer |

Sad news indeed. Only young too. It's also a shame he couldn't make it into 2010. In pace, requiescat, Tim Hart. -------------
