The lead singer with Mud, he had a string of hits in the 70s. Unfortunately it looks like no paper that did an obit (eg The Independent) has it on the web.
By the early 80s, he was part of "Les Grey's Mud" - presumably the other original band members were retired or calling themselves something else - who were the first band I ever did lighting for at university and also, three years later, the last.
I was a lot better the second time :)

Oh, and I've recently been hunting down tracks from the Be Bop Deluxe album I liked...
