Dear John
Words don't come easily at this time but since joining Chris's band you have been an inspiration to me both musically and personally - the happiest and most fun times on tour have been spent in your wonderful company.
Your playing, without a doubt, is out there amongst the best and will remain long after we are all gone.
Here's hoping that we will travel on the road together again sometime good buddy.
It has been and is a privilege to call you a friend
love to you and Brigitta

Dear John.... You've never spent as much time here in sunny Spain as we would have liked, but we do have - and will always treasure - the wonderful sounds you've committed to wax/tape/disc. Thank you for so many hours of pleasure wiith your wonderful music which will be heard 'at the touch of a button' for all time.
God Bless

Dear John! We call that person who has lost his father, an orphan; and a widower that man who has lost his wife. But that man who has known the immense unhappiness of losing a friend, by what name do we call him? Here every language is silent and holds its peace in impotence. Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts. I always felt that the great high privilege and comfort of our friendship was that one had to explain nothing. My dear John: Death is no more than passing from one room into another. But there's a difference for me, you know. Because in that other room we shall be able to see. So take care and do not worry, we will meet again! Yours Peter

Dear John, I am extremely sad about the bad news but you will win the battle! Have I ever told to that you have been the main reason for a little boy way back in 1986 to start playing guitar? With your return to the Chris Barber Band you became one of my biggest guitar heroes and my admiration has never stopped getting bigger and bigger ever since. So many great memories of the nearly 100 concerts of the band I have been attending over the last 20 years of my life and so much great music that I could listen to that enriched my musical heart so much. Not enough characters in this message board to say what I would like to say. But be sure, that me and all my family and friends who adore you and your playing so much are thinking of you in this difficult time. Take care Helge

Dear John. So many good memories of travelling, working and staying together from your rejoin in '86 until I left in 2005 that its not worth singling out specifics. Your humour, wit and good company were priceless! Splendid memories of us and your Band at Montreux Jazz&Blues Festival and Germany on tour. You have a million happy times to reflect on at this difficult time. The exotic holidays with Brigitta, the success of your girls, the admiration of everyone who heard your playing over 45 years with the Band. Its more than a "bit of a bastard!" this time it seems, but there aint no prizes for how far we can go , only for what we do with the time we have. You should be proud that you have been so succesful in your life and made so many people happy. Luv ya! Richard & Betty

John . . . I've loved your style since you first came on the scene back in the 60s and have learned a few of your special licks. Not very well I have to say but I love to have a go and my old Gibson seems to like it too. I've seen you with your own band and of course with the CB band. I've got your CDs and I shall continue to listen to you.

"Another Sad One" is beautiful and says it all. Judy,my wife,Leah,my younger daughter (who loved your band at the Stables and who also has one of your CDs) and I,send you and your family our love and very fondest thoughts.

Peter
