The late Steve Walsh - larger than large, broader than Broadway! You Wot, you wot, you wot!

Steve Walsh (1959 4 July 1988) was a disc jockey. He died from a heart attack aged 29 following a car crash in Ibiza, Spain.

Walsh began his radio career at the first Soul music Pirate radio station, Radio Invicta. From there he moved on to JFM, where his unique radio style first began to shine through. He then decided that if he was to further his career he would have to be completely legal, and leave pirate radio. An opportunity came up at the new Independent Local Radio station, County Sound in Guildford.

He returned to London with the launch of Radio London's "Soul Night Out'". Walsh's ability to warm up an audience had been spotted by Tony Blackburn, who wanted to work alongside hime. At the same time he was approached by Capital Radio, having covered one Saturday on Greg Edwards' "Soul Spectrum" when Edwards was ill. This led to six months on Capital Radio with a slot in the small hours of Sunday. The two stations became uneasy about sharing the same DJ, and eventually Walsh went to BBC Radio London to host the Sunday 7-9pm show and later added second slot on Mondays.

Although he made a big impact in the radio world, Steve will be best remembered for his live work, happiest in front of a thousand people in a nightclub.

Walsh died on 4 July 1988 after being injured in a car crash in Ibiza, where he was filming a music video. He returned to London where he underwent further surgery on his leg. He then suffered a heart attack and died.

Steve Walsh will be missed by many people, both those in the dance music industry and his many listeners and clubbers. Starpoint's DJC said of Walsh: "The man was a genius. He brought soul music to London."

sorry for his early death, however glad things of the same Era like "Change You Are My Melody" and other legendary 80s funk and soul were never made a mockery and ruined like Fatback.
