Dear Marek,
Unfortunately, there was no link in the email I received.
So far as you not recalling Stan's passing. 
You wrote the following at the time, in response to Peter Vacher's Guardian obit posted to the DJML by Robert Calder.
Very kind regards,
Bill.

Strangely, the obit does not mention the Fawkes-Gerig Quartet.  I
heard it at teh Pizza EXpress on Dean ST. in, I believe, 1992, and it
was great!
Even stranger, the obit fails to mention that Greig's rendition of
Honky Tonk Train Blues was the theme of BBC's Jazz for the Asking,
which catapulted GReig into international fame.

A wonderful pianist indeed, much better than a drummer.

Blessed be his memory
