I met GV a couple of times at rock'n roll weekends in UK seaside chalet parks a year or two before he died. It was a bit difficult to associate the man then with the man he was at the time of the Blue Caps and the peak of his career, but I loved his music at the time and still do today.

I also love Ian Dury's tribute - "Sweet Gene Vincent" - a great track for a great rocker.
