Jonathan King 16 now on Deep Throat; Scott Walker; Keith Moon; Kenny Everett... 17 Years, 5 Months ago  
Views for the autobiog vidblogs are going through the proverbial roof!

Also on YouTube, Grouper, Yahoo, MySpace, Google and all the other sites (the network grows daily).

What comes across most strongly in these video blogs ..... 17 Years, 5 Months ago  
... is your unwillingness to say anything bad about anybody !

You can even be complimentary when chiding someone about something. It's a very good trait to have, JK - if only many others in the world had a similar outlook.

A very moving and informative episode. If that one is ever shown on TV, when the credits come up, there will be a lot of silent and thoughtful lounges. I remember watching Derek Jarmans film "Blue" at around the same time you finish the story on the blog about Kenny, and I have the same stunned feeling from watching this short, that I had from viewing Dereks` last film.

JK,
Yet another good one!

You are one hell of a story teller... a talent much under appreciated in our sound bite age...

Interestingly, a poster on another board says how can I call Kenny the greatest ever British DJ when John Peel was around.

New thread time?

Greatest ever DJ - British or otherwise?

I loved The Real Don Steele on KHJ Los Angeles. Anyone else ever heard him?

There are different sorts of DJ's. In my eyes Kenny was the best British personality DJ, John Peel was the best music DJ...

Funny how none of the DJ's working now come close to either of them....

Everett was the best of the 'character' DJs, where as Peel was more about the music... least IMO...Having said that KE championed Bo-Rap... so he had his moment too...

I listened to KE for very different reasons and than I did JP. To compare the two is like comparing Stan Laurel to Humphrey Bogart. Both were great at what they did, but what they did was so radically different as to make the comparison meaningless...

Kenny turned radio into an experience; John Peel turned radio into an education. Both styles live together very, very well.

I assume you agree that the comparison is meaningless

They apparently both hated Tony Blackburn... at least according to Peel... doubtless JK would have the skinny on that...
