Shame. Come Up and See Me is a good song. It is all getting closer for my generation. Must get round to altering my will is what I often think when I see these thread titles.
RIP, saw him at a Prostrate Cancer fund raiser at Kenney Jones polo club a few years ago. Halfway through his set, he decided to auction the guitar he was using and said he’d arrange for all the other acts to sign it. From memory, someone from the crowd paid £10k for it.
Remember seeing Cockney Rebel before they were known at Dagenham Roundhouse and several times in the next few years. When it came to the encore at Dagenham, Steve Harley nervously said that they had no more material and could only play one or two songs again. Without warning, Steve did a cover of Marlene Dietrich’s Falling in Love Again before playing a couple of other songs. Saw Steve Harley again not too long ago, which represents my longest gap between seeing an artist. A really good artist and likeable character. RIP
Bloody hell another one of my musical hero's gone! Only a few years older than me, I'm shocked and saddened. Come up and see me, great song! Was a good DJ as well! RIP Steve, thanks for the music mate!! Xxx
That is so sad. Another contributor, with the likes of "Make Me Smile", "Judy Teen", "Mr Soft" and many more including one particularly close to my heart, "Sebastian", to the soundtrack of not just my youth but later life too, has gone forever.
Absolutely gutted was a massive fan in the 70s as a teenager and continued to follow in the later years. A brilliant and imaginative songwriter. Thank for the memories Steve, another part of my youth gone. R.I.P
