Farewell to a legend of my childhood. And a generally good guy, from all reports.

I tried to delete my entry!!

We must be about the same age!! I don't remember Paladin though, so after his time!!

I remember going to see Glen Michael in my village town hall. My mum must not have known where we were or thought we wouldn't be late because I remember using a pay phone to tell her very quickly where we were!!

I remember going to one of the live shows. Not well. This news triggered a piece of memory I'd almost forgotten. RIP Big Man.
