Very sad :cry:  :cry: . He lived next door to a friend of mine and we used to come across him in the local pub now and again. Always in shorts whatever the weather.

I never met the guy, Steve did briefly at Reading festival '92, he had a special place in our hearts.

Steve did GCSE's to Degree studying listening to his music, and is a real music junky in large part to the man.

I used to listen to him, whislt in dodgy bedsits - his voice made me feel 'safe'.

Our youngest never really slept from being first born - till we started playing the radio in his room, he'd settle with 'uncle peel' then he'd start to drift, we used fall asleep too listening to his show.

Glastonbury will never be the same again :cry:
