Yes, this made the BBC Radio Four news this morning....and that really is a mark of respect. The Walker Brothers were immensely popular when they broke here in, I think, 1965. Part of it, I suppose was their desire to base themselves in the UK. I can remember a presenter putting some fans' questions to the group. Do you intend to apply for British nationality? John replied, That's a five year question.

Beautiful, timeless music. RIP John...and thanks.
