It is with a heavy heart that we have to report the death of Grant Brown, known to us by his forum name 'Struth' on the evening of the 21st March 2024.
Grant was a major and popular contributor to The Art of Sound forum: clocking up just over 99,000 posts covering his interests in music (jazz and blues especially), whisky, tea, coffee and film. Grant will be sorely missed by all of us Moderators and I'm sure by many of the faithfull Members of AoS.
Grant was a total star. He always had time to answer questions and was an amazing contributor to the Forum. I for one will miss him dearly and my heartfelt sympathies go out to his family. R.I.P Matey... you will be missed.

Grant was a friendly, gentle and affable guy and I will miss him terribly.

Although I never got to meet Grant, or even speak to him directly, I felt I had known him as a friend for years. That was what Grant was like: gentle, considerate and knowledgeable, and always ready to help. His contribution to this forum and community is incalculable and he will be greatly missed.
I like to think he somewhere else talking and drinking whisky with those Blues and Jazz artist(e)s, whose music he loved so much.

If, and when, we get any details of the funeral arrangements, we will post them here for those who would like to pay their respects.
Many thanks
