I'll never forget that day, or the few days following it. :cry:

Thanks for posting this Jim, I was wanting to do the same but wasn't sure of the exact date. RIP Roberto, you were a great friend and very sadly missed by all of us who met you here in Sheffield.

Roberto's book That Sound will be remembered by quite a few members including myself.
Unfortunately by the time I read it , it had sold out and I had to borrow a friends copy to
see the great detail and research he had done on the subject.
I was wondering if a limited edition reprint could be viable, and obviously with the approval
of his family.
Like myself I am sure many others would like a copy to add to their collection and would pay
in the region of its original retail price. Part of the proceeds could be towards a charitable
cause again approved by Roberto's family?
Has anyone else a view on this matter?

Unfortunately I never met Roberto but we exchanged many emails and his help in several projects was invaluable.

RIP
