Johnnie Walker

[Palace Old Geezer]

Died today. One of my favourite DJs from pirate radio to Radio 2.

Very distinctive voice and a campaigner for many artistes on his programmes including The Eagles.

RIP Johnnie.

Sad news. I am old enough to remember listening to him on Radio Caroline on my little Perdio transistor radio.

His Sounds of the 70's programme was a good show. Bob Harris has taken it over.
RIP.
