The wheel of life turns and another figure from my youth passes on…

I thought he was older than 73, but when you are a teenager as I was in the 70’s, people older than me did seem, well, older.

I just realised how many olders there are in that last sentence

Great pity. Saw him live about 10 to 12 years ago playing solo. Great show of an underrated and brilliant musician/ songwriter.

Very sad news. I last saw him not that long ago at Birmingham Town Hall.
I’d had a few beers and the show had its ups and downs.
An exquisite Sebastian.
I came out singing at the top of my voice “Oh dear look what they’ve done to the blues blues blues”.
I wasn’t the only one mind.
That’s how I will remember him.

RIP Steve.

Sad news indeed. For me, Cockney Rebel’s Psychomodo is one of the seminal albums of the 70’s. I bought a new copy of the LP about 2 years ago as my original had been played almost to destruction. It still stands up well.
RIP Steve.

Another good guy leaves us. A visitor to Naim introduced by Louise a good friend of Julians brought Steve to the factory, we had a lovely interesting lunch together at the Radnor Arms talking about all things music related as you can imagine- a totally gracious intelligent and super nice guy! definitely made us smile:)
