Second attempt at responding (technology,!). Great initiative Simon, Tony and I jammed anywhere and everywhere from London to Turkey.
Did you find the CDs I made for Tony of his songs and jam sessions? He asked me to record them from my Sony 2-track machine as his had suffered somewhat in Hong Kong. I have them on my Laptop.
Hi Mark, thanks! Thought it would be a good tribute, and a better way for the songs to end up than just be stuck in a notebook in the back of a garage and forgotten. I didn't find the CDs (but then, I wasn't looking for them). If you have a copy of 'Freedom' could you email it to me?
He never recorded it as far as I know. I've got several folders of his Sony recordings (not good quality of random stuff) on my laptop. Is there an electronic method of winging them over to you?
Just sent you my 'Tony's Yesterdays' folder of all Tony's songs, jams, ramblings etc via my 'The Oz' Gmail account (ostheimermark@gmail.com) via Wetransfer - hope it works. There are some of my similar very early recordings scattered around the folders that you may want to delete!
What a fabulous thing to do and such a meaningful tribute too !
Thanks Ben. Just seemed like the right thing to do. I'm really looking forward to getting some songs or videos or people putting his words to music.

Just sent myself a single folder, maybe I need to do one at a time. Hmmmmm
WeTransfer reported a problem sending the files to you do you have another email address I could try?

How lovely to honour your dear Dad and yourself in this way, Simon. 🙏🏻
Thanks Michael. Yes, was a great unexpected find. Looking forward to a year of learning more about him through his songs.
