So saddened to hear the news of Rick Buckler’s passing.
Anyone who knows me knows how important The Jam were in my life.
Rick …you touched the lives of so many.
Condolences to his family and friends.
RIP.

- Annie on the radio on a Sunday night was a must listen. She was a trail blazer. A great music guide. Full of enthusiasm & passion. Got a lovely memory of being in her company back in 2007 when she came in & recorded a My London for us. Safe travels Annie. Thank u for the tunes.
- Like everyone, so saddened to wake up & hear the news of Terry’s passing. The Specials, the Fun Boy 3, the Colourfield, Terry, Blair & Anouchka & his various collaborations have been a large part of my musical soundtrack. Thanks for touching our lives with your magic Terry…gx
- There was quite rightly a lot of love for Prefab Sprout & their classic 45 "When Love Breaks Down" on my X thread yesterday. Producer Ollie & I thought we could celebrate the band on the Megamix next week. We’ve both got our favourites & memories of the band but what about you?
- Such sad news to hear of the passing of this radio titan So many of us have grown up listening to Johnnie on the radio. He touched our lives with his passion for broadcasting and music. He was one of the greats. RIP Johnnie. gcx
- We sadly lost someone who touched the lives of so many of us just before Xmas…Terry Hall. On nxt Saturday’s Megamix we pay tribute. I’ve got my favourite songs featuring Terry in his different musical incarnations & some lovely memories but what are yours? Pic @NorthBankNorman
- Took ya breath away in the mid 80s… still does. And the 12 inch version is pretty special too.
- I love this pic of the birthday boy and John (Lennon). Here’s wishing the Starman, a happy heavenly birthday. Was lucky enough to interview David four times and every chat was a blast, peppered with that lovely, lively sense of humour of his. God, we miss him (and John too).
- Pete Shelley’s songs have been a part of the soundtrack to so many of our lives. RIP Pete...
- Saddened to hear of the passing of Karl Wallinger. What a talent. Such songs. “Goodbye Jumbo” is a classic. The perfect, blissful mix of their infectious pop, soul, folk, funk & rock influences. Was lucky enough to interview him a few times. Just the funniest fella to be around.
- Doesn't get any better than this ❤️Prefab Sprout - When Love Breaks Down live on Whistle Test BBC
- Sad to hear of the passing of this music great. Was lucky to spend an afternoon in her company many years ago for an enjoyable, lively interview. Thanks for the music and magic Marianne…RIP. Pic by Gered (Mankowitz).
