Craig 6321 Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 The man who helped the Stones make it big in States has passed on.... Best remembered in some quarters for the remix of '24 Hours from Tulsa' that Argos knocked together to advertise Premier Points. "Only 24 toasters from Scunthorpe, only 6 double beds from Torquay" (were Gol and Toonraider the inspiration?) RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catmag 336 Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Would it be bad to admit that I thought he was dead already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adios 717 Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Would it be bad to admit that I thought he was dead already? 115548[/snapback] Forward thinking. Could have saved Laz's mother some cash, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Seen him on something the other week promoting his tour, seemd a decent bloke but anyone who does a duo with Almond you've got to wonder about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 35580 Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I hated that song he did with Marc Almond. That's about all the exposure I've had to the bloke. RIP though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W 0 Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 apparently he would apologise to fans when they brought him certain CDs to sign saying he apologised for the quality but the cheapskate record company hadn't bother to remaster them but had just ripped them off the vinal apparently really knew the Stones well and was VERY CLOSE FRIEND of Marianne Faithful but would never spill any beans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
