Hans Diepstraten

On Tuesday we were at the cremation of Timmy in Brussels. It was amazing to see so many of his friends there. Afterwards we all gathered at the bar "Bier Circus" in central Brussels where we shared drinks and listened to some of his favourite records. Over the years Timmy was a special guest on our radio show several times. Below are links to three shows he did with us that are still on Mixcloud today. Have a listen and hear his voice. To say it with the Notations as played at his funeral "He's still here"... RIP Timmy
