Pat Crumly
Wednesday, 8 October 2008
There were several errors in the obituary of the saxophonist Pat Crumly [7 October].
Crumly died on 28 September, not 29 September. He was married three times, not twice, the third time to Hannah Jackson in 1994. Ronnie Scott did not add him to his own quartet – the Ronnie Scott's Legacy Band was not Scott's Quartet with Patrick replacing the leader but was a band set up to celebrate the legacy of Ronnie Scott. The Ronnie Scott Legacy band did not play in Athens; it was Crumly's own quartet, the Pat Crumly Quartet.
When he appeared in Beirut and Kurdistan, it was with Ilham Al Madfai, the Iraqi musician and singer, and his band.
