Posted March 3, 200718 yr Just saw Dick Coombes mentioned.. Any recent sightings of the man in question ? He moved to Southern Ireland about 10/12 years back and was last seen by Keb Darge as a support DJ at one of his Funk nights( in Dublin ?) He sold me some great 45s years ago; Bobby Kline, Blue Jays, Headlines come to mind. Edited March 3, 200718 yr by Russ Smith

March 5, 200718 yr Hi Russ - hope you're well mate. The very last time I saw Dick was in June 1986 at the 100 Club around 6am. He had just got back from his spot at the Fleet in Peterborough, and we stopped, chatted at the bar and he bought me a drink. I still owe him one from then! Always had a lot of time for Dick - a good bloke to chat to and get on with. Would be great to see him again, then I can buy him that drink I owe him after nearly 21 years - though I guess it would be a non-alcoholic one, since he gave up drinking and smoking in one go a couple of years before then!
