Steven was a couple of years above me at Oakbank School and although it was probably 15 or so years the last time I saw him, there are lots of memories, particularly working on various school concerts and shows where I can still hear him playing the hilarious part of an Italian mafiosi in "The Oakey Coakey Club". He was a brilliantly funny chap,
and I'm proud to say that I was at the Double Six bar in Keighley when his band, Master Zangpan and the Mechanical Housewife played their legendary set.I feel incredibly sad that he's gone, though I'm glad to read other peoples memories on this site as they have reminded me of him, and am also pleased to hear that he never tamed his subversive and controversial nature.Cheers to you Steven and thanks.
