Black Jack Brabham

Sir Jack Brabham was a legend of motor racing for most of my life. I met the man once in Monaco in 1992.

Sir Jack Brabham passed away last week.

Somehow the father and son were destined to meet, and to pose for my photo. I took it in 1992 in Monaco harbour on the boat Operetta, that James Hunt was renting for the weekend.

A great influence, on many of us, has passed away. Nash the Slash is no more!

Long Live Nash the Slash!

From the Worth’s basement on Bayview avenue listening to Clear rehearse, to his time with the Canadian band FM, with my former bandmate, Cameron Hawkins, we crossed many paths.
Nash the Slash was a master musician and innovator. A true rebel without a cause. I’m not sure he could be born today… R.I.P. Jeff Plewman.
