Played in a short lived band with Tim called Radio City did maybe three gigs and recorded a demo. He was a good bass player and a great guy. RIP Tim much love Neil

Only met Tim briefly on a couple of visits South, to Maxilla. Found Tim to be a warm person, we had a few chats after I got his Combat Ready book, which I found inspiring. As a Clash fan, and Tim fan, I know how much he was looking forward to the making of Sandinista release. A lovely guy who is unquestionably missed. My thoughts and condolences to all Tim's family and friends for their loss. Rest in peace brother, stay free 😔💚✌️ Stephen Scott (Artist/Clash fan).

Tim was a warm, energetic, amazing guy and he was loved and will be sorely missed. I am so grateful that Analisa and I got to hang out with him in his last few years. Tim's almost certainly in heaven hanging out with Keith Levene right now.

When I was 13 years old, Uncle Spiny (our nickname for him after he visited with an epic mohawk!) took me to the music shops on Denmark Street. I had just started playing drums and was a bit shy about it but not in front of him. His calm excitement gave me the courage to bang away without a second thought. Tim was beaming with pride as he watched me. This moment made me feel brave and helped me overcome shyness in all aspects of my life.

When I was about 16, I mentioned to Tim that I was insecure about my gappy teeth. He reassured me that it was “cool to be unique” and that I looked “like a mix between Madonna and Gloria Estefan.” It was EXACTLY what I needed to hear as a pop-star obsessed teenager. I now wear that uniqueness as a badge of honor thanks to my Uncle Tim.

We hope that you find this tribute to Combat Tim a place of comfort, support and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.
