Mike taught me some rudiments way back in the 1960s when he lived in Spratton with his folks and he played with Johnny Kay and The Kossacks. I took up drumming again about four years ago, after losing my partner. Thank you Mike, those lessons stayed with me all those years. I am SO grateful.

Mike taught me to play in the mid 90s. Absolutely wonderful guy and I'll always remember the coffee and cigarettes.
RIP my old teacher. I am where I am today, because of you.

Mike taught me and got me set up with my first kit 30 plus years ago it changed the course of my life. I've travelled the world and occasionally even made a few quid. I just did a search and found this now, I just wish I'd had the chance to tell him myself just how important he was. All the best.
