    Worrying thing for me is everyone from my dad's record collection is dying this year.

    Many memories of listening to him on a Saturday night when I was a kid.

    RIP.
    First saw him at a little church hall charity event in Lewisham when he had just got a 'Light programme' wireless slot. Nice, charming and quite entertaining.
