Thanks Archie,

I saw him many times. Sad story for sure. Such a great talent.

I was shocked when I saw this clip after watching yours.

Tragic though not hugely surprising. 'Bless the Weather' influenced me profoundly (and not only musically). What a great great songwriter and guitarist. 'One World' îs my favourite song ever. Rest in peace John.
