This was subsequently re-released in 2020 as part of the fund raising CD ‘HEARTSONGS’ for the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham.The all star tracks featured Brian May, Rick Wakeman, Midge Ure, Steve Howe, Neil Murray and Simon Phillips.
Many of his highlights include appearing on Never Mind The Buzzcocks, The Old Grey Whistle Test, The Kenny Everett Video Show and on BBC’s Top of The Pops. In 1996 he was invited by Sir Cliff Richard to be the Troubadour in the musical Heathcliffe. It was in 2019 that he was awarded an MBE for his contribution to music and charity.
