[I was working in US when he died and couldn't get a copy of the NME with the tribute , don't suppose anyone kept it did they?? [/quote]

I think i've got a copy somewhere,if i can find it i'll let you know,you can't keep it but i'll let you borrow it.

I met John at my first Glastonbury.I had listened to his show on the wednesday and he'd said he hated it when people shouted at him but did'nt come over and say hello.So when my mate and i saw him on the thursday evening,it was too good an opportunity to miss.We staggered over and intrduced ourselves and had a chat about what bands we were going to see,he insisted we see Lonnie Donegan.Lucky we did because he passed away about a year later.Top bloke,we even made him late for his radio show because he seemed genuinely interested in our opinions about certain bands.Sadly missed
