    Very sad to hear that Jarrow lad John Miles died in Newcastle hospital following a very short illness. Very talented and his Song Music will always be an all time classic. He also toured with Tina Turner for a number of years becoming her musical director.
    My memory recalls me first seeing him in the Old Hall Social Club, Scotswood, in the 70's performing as the John Miles Set and thought him a brilliant singer. R.I.P. John you did Newcastle proud.

    • John Miles died on Sunday surrounded by his family at a hospital in Newcastle
    • Manager and friend Cliff Cooper described the singer as 'a brilliant musician'
    • Career saw him perform alongside Stevie Wonder, Jimmy Page and Tina Turner
    • Rock ballad Music Was My First Love rose to number three in the charts in 1976
