@RedEx1 thanks for an interesting rabbit hole, that. I enjoyed Time (fantastic) and also Rain and ...meets Dracula lol. Tried to search for any extant copies of Transmission which he hosted on Ch4 but didn't find any. I was a fan of Bauhaus back in the day (Bela Lugosi's Dead era) and I see he worked with David J. Sorry for our collective loss.
@RedEx1 - ha! "the most extreme case of privatization I've ever come across! I wouldn't have believed it of you, Phil." Thanks for digging that up. My little band of ne'er do wells were playing "Indy" post-punk up until 1991 before I got bit by the folk / trad bug.
@in8sworld Aye, he's left a big hole in a lot of people's lives. His last album was quite brilliant.There's one or two bits of "Transmission" kicking around on Youtube eg. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Kqbwz51wG4
