So sad and unexpected, my heart goes out to his family:

Oh no. That's unreal....what a terrible loss to the music world, and the human race. I only ever met him once, but he was a very warm and open person on that occasion. His music was of surpassing excellence.

A huge loss indeed Rob: So much could be said on the subject, and no doubt will be, so I'll leave it to those more eloquent than myself. Instead I'll just post a clip of John playing some Irtrad for now, although as you no doubt know, John was far far more than just an IrTrad player........
