He died in Melbourne on September 12, 2001, as a result of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Although I became A aware of Adrian Rawlins’ work and reputation quite soon after arriving in Australia in 1960, and we had met a few times in later years, it was not until the late ‘90s that I really got to know him well. You could even say we became mates, a term that I use very sparingly. We actually caught up with each other on a gray Melbourne day in Roger Beilby’s Mainly Jazz record shop at St Kilda. We subsequently went to lunch and, each of us having a deep interest in the poetry and jazz movements of the late ‘50s discussed several potential collaborative writing projects on that topic. With his help and permission, I re-edited his fine essay on jazz and poetry in Melbourne in the ‘60s, which had appeared some years before in the Victorian Jazz Club’s Jazzline, and published it in my own WordJazz Down Under.
