He was actually 64. Great memories with PHD and 'I won't let you down'. And other well knowns, of course, 'I should have known better', plus the old Boon TV theme 'Hi ho silver'.

His mum died last month.

Very sad. Too soon in the age of we're 'all' living longer.
RIP

Aberdonians (& other Scots) of a certain age may remember Jim playing with a band called Gully Foyle. RIP Jim

I'm not a Scot, but have liked a lot of Scots bands - there's been plenty of them.

Jim was first in a group called Jade whose bass guitarist Chris Glen and lead, Jim Lacey, who both went on to play with Alex Harvey and Alan Bown.
