 | Sad!!
I am not a Jazz-fan, but his music - one of the best harmonica-players worldwide - had something soft and relaxing but not boring. As much of Paul`s music. |

  | That performance was part of a Special concert filmed by the BBC in late 1975, pre internet, pre MTV days, in a freezing riverside converted warehouse in Bristol.
This weeks Times obituary (Aug 23) of Toots even quotes his memories of it : "It was in December and there was practically no heating...as I played a note on the harmonica I could see all the air coming out of my mouth - but I enjoyed it very much".
