RIP Blue. May perpetual light shine upon you, and may God Bless you.
RIP Blue. And a very talented blue by the sound of it.
Incredible musician. He'd also become the lead singer for Sad Cafe after Paul's death.
I knew Barry very well. From school days and when our families became closer through a relationship. I last saw Barry about three months ago, he was his usual chirpy self and was always positive thinking even though he was facing a battle. I always saw him with a smile on his face. God bless you sweet, kind man, the world is a sadder place without you around.
I used to see him in a band at O'Neils on a Thursday in the early 2000's then saw him sing in the Piano Bar in Puerto Banus ( Bobby Davro and Des O'Connor and Max Clifford were also in that night)
I didn't know him personally but always enjoyed him performing....seemed to remember in O'Neils he would always sing Brown Eyed Girl

dave james always said they were the only black kids in wythenshawe!
My dad met alan at school and promptly took him home to meet his mum (my nanna) who was horrified At first but soon fell in love with what she said was the biggest smile she had ever seen :)
