R.I.P. Nick Talbot a.k.a Gravenhurst
What an awful week. First Bobby Keys, then
Ian McLagen and today, news that Nick Talbot,
also known as Gravenhurst, has passed away,
aged just 37.
Here's a short film about Bristol and the
impact that the city had on his life and
music, which was uploaded to Nick's YouTube
page just a couple of weeks ago.

Really shocking. He made some lovely music. I've not seen the Bristol film before and all the areas featured have a deep personal resonance for me. Some of Nick's facts were a little off but we'll forgive him as he wasn't born there. RIP, sir.
Great sadness. Far too young.
