Very sad to hear about the passing of Roger Cook. For readers of this blog he will forever be associated with the wild high energy slab of madness which is Cut Loose
He was so much more than this though. He made a fortune with Paul Raymond along with his career in comics - read the fine obituary here

More than anything he was a lovely and approachable guy.
He was happy and helpful when it came to featuring Cut Loose on Bonehead Crunchers 3 and having the single reissued in on a small label back in 2016.
It was so cool of him to pick me up in his green Bentley and to spend an afternoon at his his plush residence in Spain. He had a recording studio set up and was still actively involved in music with the Spanish version of X Factor.
Sometimes good guys make it...
God bless you Roger
