As a not quite teenager I listened to his afternoon show religiously in the early 80s. Got myself an FM tuner for my HiFi a few months ago and had been listening to his pick of the pops on and off this year - he was definitely a radio DJ of a bygone age, but it was somewhat nostalgic hearing his voice again. Tragic to have gone seemingly so suddenly.
