Recorded at The Horns, about a year before his death, this is Stan the Man singing and playing with the Northside Jazz Band. His choice of song—When I Leave the World Behind—given subsequent events, is all the more poignant. (Sorry for the quiet sound on this; it was recorded separately and I didn't adjust it properly before uploading.)
Finding this video of Stan was a pleasant surprise but a sad reminder that he will entertain us no more at The Horns or at Kings Langley Jazz Club.

Stan was a real character - he often joined the northside jazz band when they played The Horns - he got a bus from Luton to Watford to sing a couple of songs and play his Kazoo - carrying his little book with the words to his songs in it! - he died suddenly in the summer of 2007 - God Bless you Stan.
