I had the pleasure of meeting Steve several times when I was @10-11 years old.
He was lodging with family friends who were DJ colleagues of his when he worked at a local radio station (before Radio 1).

I remember him being a nice guy and a joker. I always remember him telling me he had a wooden leg whilst tapping it with one hand as he simultaneously tapped the wooden panel behind him. I didn't fall for it though!

Like Les said, a true icon of those days and (like George Michael) a good guy that was taken too soon. RIP Mr Wright.
