So far I can only see this on Reuters and on a site in Dutch I don't understand, but doubtless it will appear elsewhere. Dick Heckstall-Smith has died.
I used to hear him in the early 80s at a pub on Green Lanes in Stoke Newington whose name I can't recall, where he would play a residency at the weekends. I knew of him long before that through his recorded work. He was also famously referred to in the late Jeff Nuttall's Bomb Culture
