R I P Steve HARLEY ... COCKNEY REBEL

JUST EARLY 70'S

 

I love ‘Make me Smile (come up and see me)’ - it’s among my favourite songs. It’s one I can actually play on the guitar too!!
RIP Steve

 

One of my musical heroes.
First band I ever saw live and that was at the Bristol Locarno. Seen him with the band and solo numerous times and feel really sad at his passing.
RIP Mr Harley

 

I used to play this one to death! MAKE ME SMILE they were unique with their sound .Judy teen Mr Soft Mr Raffles Sebastein and of course not forgetting here comes the sun ...

 

I saw him in Bristol couldnt think which venue though........... in the summer I think

 

Ah ‘Here comes the sun’ - one of my faves too (another I can play) - but I’m afraid I prefer the original.
George Harrison - my favourite of all the Beatles - the music media loved Lennon and McCartney and Harrison was often overlooked - all the talent he had.
Sorry back to Harley - sad loss to music.

 

Rip Mr soft.. had some great songs..very sad

 

Another good old boy gone
RIP Steve - great memories

Ian Hunter of Mott The Hoople is still going strong at 86 though

 

If my memory serves me wasn’t it held off No1 by Bo Rhap ? Was a favourite of mine in the day
RIP Steve

 

was def a number 1 was not one of the early tunes though

 

Saw Ian Hunter/Mott with that up and coming band Queen at the Colston Hall 29th November 1973!!
Where the **** has that time gone??

 

As Freddie sang, 'down in the city just Hoople and me'

 

Exactly!!
