Alan Freeman R.I.P.

just heard Alan(fluff)Freeman died today aged 79, used to love "Pick Of The Pops on radio early 60s. Greetings Popickers was his catchphrase, another of my old favs bites the dust. the worrying thing though is i am getting towards the end of the queue. RIP alan.

Re: Alan Freeman R.I.P.

Very sad to hear about the demise of Fluff.Back in the early 70's i spent many saturday afternoons listening to his rock show on radio 1,then come monday i would nip out of school at dinner,down to Marys or Marshalls to buy the latest l.p by ELP,Budgie,Uriah Heep or whatever Fluff had played that weekend.One of the most noticable voices on radio,like his late colleague John Peel,he too will be sadly missed by a generation of pop pickers.
