I am so sorry to hear the news about Woolly's untimely death. He was a wonderful musician and his music with BJH and his solo albums have always been a source of great inspiration for me. My deepest condolances go to his family and the band as well. He will be deeply missed by us all. Hymn was a song that inspired me so many times and now when l hear it it will remind me of Woolly and his legacy of beautiful songs. God Bless you Woolly, may you find peace.

I was stunned to hear the news. Having had the personal experience of living with two family members who chose to end their life, our deepest thoughts go to Woolly's family and circle of friends. Like many BJH came into my sphere in the very early 70's and they have remained on my playlist ever since. Peace.

I have always hoped that BJH would one day get back to the original line-up. With the passing of Mel a few years back I just hoped John and Wooly would make up with Les. All of BJH have felt like friends over the years although we have never met. The music lives on!My sincere condolenses to Woollies family and John and Les.

Have only just heard that Woolly has died. I have loved them since BJH began because the music is timeless and moving. It was a privilege to see them live twice in the last 5 years. So sad

What can I say? Sad and filled with a weird feeling of losing a friend. We never met each other but your music will always be a part of me. you are what you've done, what you've left behind you and be sure that it's a lot. probably far more than others. They say Life is eternal, so see you brother.

I think it was fitting, given Woolly’s penchant for nautical imagery that I learned of his tragic demise last week whilst in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Such heartbreaking news to take in.
I’d like to share a small anecdote of my first encounter with Woolly back in 1978. As I nervously approached him for an autograph, he clocked my FOBJH badge and proclaimed with a broad smile “You’re one of us!” Looking at the heartfelt tributes here, I think I can sincerely say that it was in fact he that was one of us.
RIP Woolly, the world is a darker place without you.

You introduced me to live music, the first concert I ever went to. You inspired me to love live bands. May you rest in peace at last.

BJH is an important part in my personal history. I'm really going to miss this good musician that took me away with his great compositions and unique singing style. Good bye.

I`m so sad of your leaving my musician companion that kept me in a soft cloud of music since I can remember. I hope you will rest in a cloud as soft as mine.

Very Sad news. Met him a few years back after a show. He was most affable. A gentle man with a great talent. We talked about mellotrons!! What a shame that we are robbed of the chance to hear more. Peace Woolly.

What a shock, I first saw BJH at Huddersfield Town Hall around 1970, they came from just over hill and our paths crossed once or twice ! Bands and artists like my own band PILGRYM would NOT be playing now if not for BJH. John, Fletch & guys I hope when the time is right you will take those great songs around the world again, Wolly would like that I'm sure. RIP my friend, how relevant are some of your songs now.

I am dismayed to read this sad news. I've loved BJH since my early teens and saw them many times over the years, several times at the Liverpool Empire. I once briefly met Woolly in the bar of the Holiday Inn after one show in Liverpool and found him very courteous.
I offer my condolencies to his family.

I was first introduced to the music of BJH in the seventies and, coming from Saddleworth, chuffed to discover BJH did as well! I will never forget meeting Woolly in the Record Bar in Oldham on the day Hymn was released – I still have my signed copy of that single.
For some reason I left off listening to the band until early 2000 – when I returned to their music and saw them live in 2006 (Edinburgh) and 2009 (Perth), both great shows.
It was great to see Wooly with the band – an excellent musician who will be sorely missed.
Thanks for the music.

I have been musing about what to put for a couple of weeks, what tribute could be fitting for such a talented guy? Well, this is what I feel and it comes from the heart.
From the early days of my musical awakening after hearing BJH through the walls from my brothers bedroom, Wooley & Co have been instrumental in framing my musical tastes. That is alongside my dear bro who had a great influence. Wooley, whatever deamons you had, they cannot reach you now. Have fun up there and I will be there one day for the best concert ever! RIP.

Sorry to hear of the loss.
I grew up listening to BJH and my prayers and thoughts are with family and friends.
Saw them several times in the 70's and 80's, always my personal favourite group.
Rest in peace.
