Following the very sad news of John's death in Peru today, I've asked Clive Selwood to pass on condolences to Sheila and the family on behalf of Sandra and myself.

If anyone would like any messages to be passed on in this way, please send them to me and I'll see they get through.

John was a really nice, genuine guy, and he'll be sorely missed by many around the world, both in and out of music.

This is truly a sad day.

"It’s gonna be a sad, sad, day when the Perfumed Garden wilts and dies away"

Very sad day indeed.
