RIP
I hope he will now be appreciated as one of the great broadcasters, he is in the same realm as John Peel, Kenny Everett & Tommy Vance.
Not living in London I was unfamiliar with his years on Capital but his late 80's/early 90's shows on "FORMIDABLE ONE FM" will always be favourites of mine - I wish I'd taped more complete shows, I always got the feeling I was listening to something totally unique, and indeed I was. We won't see his likes again.
I'm glad though that his pain is over.....

LEGEND?
NOT 'ARF!

They're locking them up today, they're throwing away the key...I wonder who it be tomorrow, you or me?
