What an amazing guy he was, only they will know how much help he was to Davey Graham (as a friend and musician). His radio programme was eclectic and I heard loads of stuff for the first time through him (Sam Chatmon and Terry Allen and the panhandle mystery band for instance). His speaking voice was velvet smooth and so upper class without being snobbish.

The man had style, sorry, that should read STYLE.

Strange to think I used to live on Eel Pie Island where where all those guys started out. Such sad nostalgia this.
