RIP No didnt really know him but bought a few records off him in the past....remember him on Dave Withers stall in Affleks Palace many years ago...also remember him being a regular face at Wigan etc. Sad loss Wasnt it him that melted Searlings (or somebodys) Jades original on some chippy hot counter?

RIP You're right Garv, i used to phone him a lot in the 90s purely for records but ended up wetting myself at him, especially his Richard Domar impersonation sadly missed, still read his mags from time to time Lenny Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Wilxy Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Whilst I never met Dave personally,we spoke regularly with regard to his fanzine, and we would buy/exchange records over a long period of time His humour touched me from our initial correspondence, particularly the additions he made to the artistry of the Postal service with his pictures of various female celebrities Keep 'em laughing buddy Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
