Steve Wright RIP

[Cazza]

More sad news Such an icon of 1980's (and beyond) pop culture. Used to listen to the afternoon show pretty much every day, for several years, while I was at school. RIP.

 

[Mini99]

Another sad loss and a big part of my life.
A pioneer of radio in the 80s 90s, TV and beyond.
Now spinning those disc's for his maker, RIP.

Yes, very sad news indeed. Steve Wright seemed to be an ever-present, he had such a long career.

Rest in peace.

My memory of the lyrics is probably a bit off, but wasn't it something like.........

Diamond Geezer, get serious
Talk about a guy who makes you delirious

The man on the bus with the vacant stare
Tap him on the forehead, there's nothing there

He's in-sane, he's no cool cat
Is he a Yankee ? No he's a prat

He's Mr.Spoons, Mr.Spoons..........

RIP Steve
