I first saw him play live back in the early 80s and saw him many more times during that decade. I got to know Ian - the person - when he worked out at Big Star's Magill Road store in the early 90's, and we spent many hours chatting away about everything under the sun, but mostly music.
RIP Ian. The Adelaide Music Scene is forever grateful for your input.
