Our thoughts are with the family.


A great loss to his family and friends and also a great loss to the music world.
On a personal note Bill, along with Ena, always made us feel welcome on our annual trips to his music festivals when we discovered them in the early Seventies while on holiday in Scotland.
Every time they made sure we were invited back to their house after the show to enjoy more entertainment and their wonderful hospitality.

Mick and Trisha from Oxford.
