Next up is Galaxy-Lin, a little-known and short-lived Crossover Prog band with a Shocking Blue connection - both bands were founded by multi-talented guitarist and singer/songwriter Robbie van Leeuwen, so it's a band founded on good solid credentials with the added bonus of a simply sensational saxophonist.

I loved hearing Noel on the radio too, but sadly, he's probably best-remembered now for Deal or No Deal, Noel's Crinkly Bottom and the godawful Mr. Blobby.

People tend to forget now that Edmonds was a very good radio presenter - I never really took to him on TV.

Your mention of Noel Edmonds has just reminded me of this Deal or No Deal clip from Dead Ringers.  |

I suspect he was the main inspiration for Smashie & Nicey - possibly with a bit of DLT, Tony Blackburn and Noel Edmonds in the mix.

Fluff was a tremendously good sport too, especially here, when he sends himself up in a guest appearance with Radio Fab FM DJ's, Smashie & Nicey. Smashie & Nicey also made a spoof Alan Freeman ad for Deptford Draylons.

I used to religiously listen to Fluff's Saturday afternoon rock shows. I met him once back in the day and he was a genuinely nice bloke.

Anyone who doesn't like ELP is probably not a fan of Prog Rock in general. I'd sooner listen to Alan "Fluff" Freeman's Rock Show or Pick of the Pops anytime. Alright? Not half! |

^ Peel also described ELP as 'a waste of talent and electricity'... tho that is a whole different discussion!

John Peel's eclectic tastes in music are a long way from mine, considering three of his favourite bands are The Fall, The Ramones & The Undertones, none of which I'm a fan of.

It doesn't get much better than those four albums. In fact Moving Waves would probably be in my top 10 prog albums of all time. [Even if John Peel described their music as rat's p!ss.]
