RIP Charles (Charlie) Dawson
I hope this reaches all his steelie friends, mainly in the Southampton area, especially Ken Byng and Ed Nix and the band members of Busted
Charlie, who was my brother in-law, passed Early Saturday morning in his home in Somerset. Made it to 88 and had a pretty good life, most would remember him from many bands in the Southampton area, notable the band Wheels. Thank you if you were a friend of his, he was a true gentleman. Tony

Hi Tony,
So sad to hear this news about Charlie , I new him fairly well. RIP Charlie.

JFI. Ed Nix & Busted and The Eddie Smith Band, Eddie Smith also passed away, aged 79. Sept, 2023. I played in his band for a short time.
He was a talented musician, playing piano, accordion and guitar to a high standard by ear, unable to read a note of music, but a great guy to be around.
