Sad to hear of Dave Hoy's passing. I first encountered him in the early 1980's in his capacity as live soundman for The Sinyx at the time. He was also one of the first people I knew whom had a 4-Track Reel to Reel recorder, and with this he recorded many local bands, including The Sinyx, Kronstadt Uprising, Allegiance to No One and Sonic Violence. A Billericay based punk band called Traitor were also recorded by Dave.
From my experience Dave was a gentle soul, and passionate about music. Before embarking upon his time recording bands on his 4 track, he'd been a roadie for Dr Feelgood, and the last time I saw him he was making various leather clothes, especially waistcoats.
R.I.P. Dave and thanks for everything.
