poor old keith had a very rough trot with health over the last few years. i think it is rather sad that just over two weeks ago keith came out to let us know he was still alive after his death was reported on a radio forum.
as a frequent visitor to various forums i know that he was well known to many in and out of the industry. rip in peace old boy -

Yep Keith has left us and although I did not always agree with the way he posted stuff across the net I still think his heart was in the right place.
