Steve Harley RIP

I liked his cover of Here Comes the Sun, memories.

So sorry to hear that GSM and BlueBelle. I do hope your lives were happy thereafter.

He was one of my first crushes at 14!

I was thinking the other day (rare thing I know) of what music they would be playing in an old folks home these days. Vera Lynne seems the songs always played on tv shows for old folks. Imagine Steve Harley and groups like The Sweet, Marc Bolan, Mud, David Bowie et al blasting out. Doesn’t quite fit in my mind.
Rest in peace Steve and thanks for the memories.

Rest in peace steve.

Very sad news, Come Up And See Me Make Me Smile is one of my husband’s favourite songs.

I love that song and also ‘Judy Teen’ its forerunner. Sad to hear of his death, especially following Dave Myers, another favourite of mine. Cancer is a truly awful disease and it will be happy days all round when we get more breakthroughs in treating more varieties of it.

I was gutted yesterday when I heard the news. He was a true legend in my eyes and such a lovely guy. I was introduced to his music in the late seventies and saw him live many times. At least his music lives on and will continue to be played in this house 😢

I was so sad to see this news yesterday too. Loved all his music.
All the good ones are leaving it seems to me, too sad.

I absolutely love 'Sebastian' and have it blasting out in the car often, along with 'Judy Teen', 'Psychomodo', 'Hideaway', and so many more that are so good. What a loss. Rest easy Steve.

I think he was quite underrated, having listened to some of those songs you've mentioned.

Psychomodo was one of my first albums which I bought for myself. I still listen to some of the songs on it which were so different in their time.
I saw Steve Harley at the Isle of Wight Festival and I was disappointed he hadn't warmed up his voice. It was about half way through that he became the Steve Harley I knew and loved.
May he rest in peace.

Cockney Rebel was the first non-classical concert I went to. Hammersmith Odeon in 1976 or 1977. RIP Steve.

Strange to hear it mentioned as "an early death". He was 73 - past his promised three score years and ten!

I loved his songs (but was in love with David Cassidy!) I remember Make me Smile being played at my Uncle's funeral. Such an apt song as my Uncle was only fifty and more like a big brother and a lovelychap.

My son was in the same rock band at Colchester Grammar school with his son , Kerr 🎶

RIP Steve. Always made me smile.
