Yes, I loved it - Every Saturday morning for what seems like forever, but probably isn't.
The percentage of crap he played was worth enduring for the gems and even the crap was often really interesting crap.

Kin' hell this thread is like the scene out of the Holy Grail...
Dead Collector: Bring out yer dead![A large man appears with a (seemingly) dead man over his shoulder
]Large Man: Here's one.
Dead Collector: Nine pence.
"Dead" Man: I'm not dead
.Dead Collector: What?
Large Man: Nothing. [hands the collector his money] There's your nine pence.
"Dead" Man: I'm not dead!
Dead Collector: 'Ere, he says he's not dead.
Large Man: Yes he is.
"Dead" Man: I'm not.
Dead Collector: He isn't.
Large Man: Well, he will be soon, he's very ill.

That made me chuckle, and is so true. Most of what he played were obscure B-sides and there was usually a very good reason they were obscure.
I liked Saturday club though.

The BBC sacked him to huge public outrage about 3 months ago. They just want him dead.
RIP or Get Well Soon. Whichever.
'And in 1968 Marmalade had a huge hit with somethingorother. But here's the B-side of their fourth single that nobody's every heard of'. That was his catchphrase.
