Today my heart again breaks after the loss of our guitar player Peter Spoke earlier this year it is with heart felt sorrow that we lose another friend and colleague Alan Dove .
What a man .... always in the background , never seeking praise for all his hard work and efforts .He passed on Saturday just gone after dropping off a friend to the train station he returned to his fathers home and passed away.
For me he achieved the heights of praise as he for the last 25 years subsidized his studio for small money to encourage young band to play and enjoy the sounds of their music . When the rental ,electric went up year after year he never changed his prices ....wow that doesn't happen today in this money grabbing society. He played bass guitar , struggling with some of the songs but never really complained , he just kept going at it till it was right.
I will remember his liking for Lemon drizzle cake and roast beef that Karen my wife would cook for a roast dinner for him.Always greafull. Humble , helpful and caring a true gentleman .
He is going to be missed by me as a friend . I use to hear every week from him , helped him with problems , we were each others whipping board for discussions on all aspects .
Good Night young man taken too early .
