Sadly I have to say that LBO member Dexter (James Skeds) died a while back. He was a stalwart of the Adelaide music scene playing with most of the more highly regarded musicians in this town. He was heavily involved with the blues scene here but was also sought after by jazz and rock players alike. He loved Deep Purple and was a mad keen on Andy Frasers playing. I only knew him via mutual friends which is not uncommon with both of us being bass players and playing at similar times. He joined this forum near its beginning and while he didnt post much he did enjoy the site a lot. We spoke mainly through PM's here. He was a very talented, versatile and widely respected bassist.
I wasn't aware that he had died until today but friends tell me it was in Oct 09. His last chats with me were in Aug 09.
RIP James
