Tommy Vance Dead!

[Minge]

Only 63, first Peely, then the Vancemeister. Never a fan of his type of music, but you could tell he walked the walk.

Good luck on the Stairway to Heaven Tommy

RIP

When I heard that on the radio this morning I thought of his jingle

TV Listen to the radio
TV play that rock n roll

or something like that

 

[Dover]

He was my John Peel. I loved Friday nights, and could not wait for 10 o clock.

A great shame.

Another sad day for British broadcasting. At least Johnnie Walker seems to have made a good recovery.

 

[Beach Hut]

Vance was a great broadcaster like Peel.

Terrible shame I liked his shows

 

[Jam The Man]

He had a cracking voice - big shame today is

 

[Blackadder]

Yep he had a very distinctive voice.

Sad loss

 

[bhaexpress]

Shame, voice overs will never be the same.

[Row Z Creased Shirt]

He was my John Peel. I loved Friday nights, and could not wait for 10 o clock.

A great shame.

I echo that sentiment. RIP Tommy.

 

[South Yarra Seagull]

Sad news indeed. My dad used to tape his shows off the radio then play them in the mornings....

The radio in Heaven must be bloody good these days...

 

[D'Angelo Saxon]

Wasn't a fan of his music, but his voiceover for Channel 5's 'Dumb & Dumberer' was incredible...

 

[GUNTER]

Used to like his VH1 rock show a few years back. Amazing voice too. Such a great shame.

R.I.P. Tommy Vance.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Wasn't a fan of his music, but his voiceover for Channel 5's 'Dumb & Dumberer' was incredible...

[Publius Ovidius]

Friday night Rock show on Radio One was the highlight in a wilderness of Dave Lee Travis and Mike Read


The good ones always go young

 

[Rambo]

My earliest memories of the Sunday top 40 was Tommy Vance.
His voice for me will always be the chart.
RIP.
