“The thing I remember most about Stalwart was his car..an ancient Lagonda which had a bus engine in it and the back was made of wood (whilst it was being refurbished ) it looked like the car the Anthill Mob or Bonnie and Clyde might drive..it looked great parked in Stockport Marketplace...He used to play in the Megaband which was a large band put together by Ian Brookes ,trumpet player and Landlord of the Manchester Arms and Bakers Vaults respectively.. I remember him busking in Stockport Precinct with a few others and they did a demo cassette I bought and still have (can't remember title but will find it) He had the biggest and smallest saxes you have ever seen and is a great player and very affable chap alas dont know what became of him”

“Hi, I knew Stewart quite well, he gave me a couple of sax lessons and sent me on my way! The last I heard of him was that he had settled down (can't imagine Stewart settling can you?!) with a lady in Hebden Bridge. Mark Shaw”
