RIP Robert
Green & Grey - one of the most anthemic songs of all time, and a fitting epitaph to your talent and stature.

I still have a black&white photo of Mr. Heaton on my computer that was released with the sad news 10 years ago. There was a hill where he was sitting, and he had sun glasses.

He was a real talent. RIP.

Just listened to Fireworks Night. Justin's spoken passages sent shivers up my spine, really moving stuff.

Just found this on the old Internet, an obituary from the Independent, a perfect tribute to a great musician...
