Biography

Showing the Discogs bio

British pop songwriter, singer and producer, born 23 January 1941.
One of the most prolific and successful pop songwriters of the 1970s, he was responsible for a great deal of the memorable hits of that decade, among them The Fortunes' Storm in a Teacup', Tina Charles' Love Bug and Dance Little Lady Dance, and Barry Blue's Dancin' (On A Saturday Night) (UK 1973) (opens in a new tab)' and Do You Wanna Dance / Miss Hit And Run (UK 1980) (opens in a new tab) What is less well known is that he was also responsible for two superb and much-loved pop-styled theme tunes from ITV lunchtime children's shows: Inigo Pipkin and The Adventures of Rupert Bear - which was not only a substantial hit single but has also remained familiar to each successive generation since.
