  3. Geoff produced an album for my band "Kingsuite" in the mid 90's. I was thinking about him last night, and looked him up and found he had passed away. He was a talented man with a great sense of humor and had the greatest ears I ever saw, drunk or sober. I hate the fact I will never again be able to talk to him. Such a loss….. Any funny Workman stories anyone???? Will share.
