TRIBUTES

A wonderful, no nonsense superb musician.  Can’t remember how we hooked up.  I’d heard he was a taskmaster.  Was back in the late 60’s.  And the hard case, Warwick Earle, his then drummer.  Got all his kit in a Fiat Bambina.  Cymbal stack poking out the roof.  Good guy.  Said I’d better know my stuff.   “Is Coop’s that bad?” I asked.  “No, he’s that good.”  He certainly was that.  The kindness of the man I will never forget.  Nor Mary, his wife.  Truly, lovely people. - Peter Hindmarsh
