I still have that album, was one of the best at that time.

My husband is still insisting on 'Come up and see me, make me smile' as his funeral song

That's very sad. He was a great storyteller and a regular guest on Johnnie Walker's Sunday afternoon show on Radio 2. R.I.P.

I always thought that song was the best pop song of the 70s.

"Pop" probably doesn't do it justice, but I use that term in contrast to other categories of music such as rock.

I remember when he was on Danny Baker's radio 5 show as a racing tipster. Sounded like a good chap.

I thought it was Clare, all round that area is on the borders I guess. Used to be seen in Sudbury.

I'm a bit younger than you but have a vivid memory of hearing it played when camping with the Scouts, in and around chickens and the like, at a farm somewhere north of Ipswich.

I saw Cockney Rebel twice on that first tour. First time was at Cromer Links Pavillion (supported by Bebop Deluxe).They then extended the tour and played at Theatre Royal in Norwich. Such a good band.
Last time I saw Steve Harley was in Norwich two or three (probably actually four or five?) years ago.
One of my all time favourites artists.
Sad news.

I can remember watching him more than once in the Ship. It was always completely rammed in there. Great nights.

I saw Steve Harley live twice in the early 1980s. The first time he had a relatively anonymous backing band, still styled as "Cockney Rebel"; the second time Duncan Mackay was on keypobards & guitarist Jim Cregan came onstage for the encore.
I played "Best Years of our Lives" a lot in the 1970s but thought Timeless Flight was a very under-rated album, despite only reaching #18 in the UK charts & not producing a hit single.

It was a great song, one of the finest ever written, but even before that was released, they were a very good band.
Saw them live at Woods in Colchester in the Spring of 1974, a cracking show.
