Only just seen this, I had a pile parcelled up ready to go to him, sent him a message (thankfully politely) to ask if he'd changed his mind on the deal. Hard to believe we were joking about prices just a week or so ago. Said he'd spent too much on records at the weekender. A great gent of the scene, knowledgable, considerate, a great loss too early. Condolences to his family and close friends.

Thank you for all the lovely comments regarding John Archer.  His funeral will take place on Tuesday 13th December at 12:00pm at Bretby crematorium, Burton on Trent, for anyone wishing to attend.
