An #Otwituary for musician and arranger #LaurieHolloway

The star steps onto set;
house band hits its cue,
drum-roll, brass sting,
strung to the tip of a baton.
Fame is a tight arrangement,
its accompanist often invisible.

Very sad to hear of the passing of musical legend #LaurieHolloway MBE. I had the pleasure of filming at his home twice. Most recently in 2023 when his friend Sir Michael Parkinson had died. He took the time to show me around his home and share many memories. His downstairs toilet was his shrine.
