As far as I'm concerned, and I know I'm far from alone, this is the saddest one of all this year, and for a very long time.  |

I was so sure he was out of trouble again, at least for a little while. Goodbye, Swarb, and thanks ever so much for the music, the laughter, the passion, the stories, and for cheating death already more than once.

The end of an era. The version of Fairport that I love can never now convene again. Condolences to Swarb's family and friends and everyone who loved the man, his music and the laughter.

Very sad news. I was lucky enough to see him a couple of times in recent years and his music was a joy.
