I knew he was quite old; we of the 78-ophile community SHOULD be
working on trying to arrange a posthumous knighthood for him! After
all...our "hobby" (rather, fascination...?!) has depended on the work
of Sir Brian Rust for some fifty years...?! He is (or should be?) MUCH
more important than "Sir" Elton John...?!
