Sad to hear Phil “The Collector” Swern has died. He was the bloke behind so many radio shows playing historical pop music (Pick Of The Pops et al) and a great loss.
I don’t listen to Boom Radio so I’d missed that he was doing his own show on there, but I’ll have to go back and see if I can find them on some sort of radio player.
