For those of us who heard him from his first show on Radio 1, he just blew us away and it just got better and better. RIP Steve

I agree 100%. I listened to Steve from his early 1980's Radio 1 show till he left Radio 1. Put simply he was unique. He was funny but friendly and kind. Everett was Zany but didn't have the same connection with a radio audience which Steve did. God bless you Steve ❤
