Rest in Peace Jackie. Title track from the album 'One Long Cold Morning.'

I once sought shelter within transient histories & landscapes and tried to call it home. While travelling recently through some beginnings and endings, I noticed that some things are buried in slow water because they

are tragic, and other things are buried simply so they would later be found. And that some shelters arn't shelters at all - but convenient markers along the way, written in a language I'm still learning to leap.

Saw him so many times but never tired of his stage presence and songs. Will never get tired of his music and his memory. He really is so much better than so many of the so called legends out there but thats how it works. Hopefully time will allow his music out more people. A man with attitude and some say hard man, but a kind man was the truth as long as you never pissed him off...

I was always deeply touched by his music and never realized that there is no other artist that I have bought more records of until the day he died and I listened to every Jackie Leven/Balfour-, Doll by Doll- and Vincent Lone record I have. He left an enormous and extraordinary legacy and when I read of the few people who appreciated his music I understand that they will never forget him. His songs weren't for the crowd, but for them who were willing to listen. God bless you Jackie, I miss you.

@joe2348 Yes I was at that gig too.....it was indeed a superb gig!. The next morning as we were eating breakfast in hotel the shower on the floor above began to pour water thro' ceiling into my hubbys cornflakes! (this is true). Glad you finally received the poems etc.Would you be able to post them on this site for others? Thanks so much for your message tho'. Tx

Saw Jackie in Tregaron's Talbot Hotel in Wales a few years ago. Was a magical evening. Paid £10 for CD of his which was to be posted with handwritten lyrics enclosed. After a few months, had received nothing, so wrote a caustic comment on his Myspace. 2-3 days later received the CD, 2 poems, a handwritten apology, and another CD. A true gentleman, a fantastic artist. Sorely missed. Heddwch.

Damn. I'm just checking out his music now because the Trouser Press website mentioned his death. Wish I listened to him years ago when he was alive!

Very sad. Saw him live some years ago. A great talent and a warm, charismatic man. Thank you for the songs and that voice.

I saw John Martyn a few weeks before he died. The terrestial bodies of our rock generation float away. Thanks for everything Jackie.

@cockneyrichy I saw him in Burnley a few years back:twenty people in the audience. He played for two and a half hours, and told some fantastic stories. Possibly the most overlooked and underrated musician this country has ever produced. R.I.P
