Dear Mike,
The word Legend is sometimes overused but in this case it's true. Songs such as 'Sweets For My Sweet', 'When You Walk In The Room' and 'Needles And Pins' changed the shape and direction of popular music forever. I've always been a fan and I hail from Ormskirk. Originally I lived in Southampton for 18 years and call it home. I've had brain damage for all of those years but now after a bleed on the brain I'm fine and am now a very happy grandad.
My mum Norma lives in Branford CTT and in fact in the 80s I was over in America and we went to see you play live and you were AMAAAAZING! She moved to America in the very early 60s from Speke after I was given up for adoption. She knew the Beatles - John Lennon in particular.
I just wanted to say 'Hello' and pay tribute to one of the most important artists in modern day popular music; you helped shape the music landscape forever and for the better, unique, groundbreaking, game-changing music... wow!
Much love from a lifelong fan
TF XXXX
