Gavin, you are entitled to think what you like about me and the posts I make here. Where you continually cross the line, however, is that you have to turn anything you don't agree with back to being about me, and whatever good points you make get lost in your game of "let's make him look a fool".
You keep on about how you're a "mature cat" and accuse me of being "bilious", and while I acknowledge the justification for the latter on occasions I put it to you that you are as bilious, if not more so, towards me and certain others on this board. If you think my opinions are "low point" there are ways to respond to them without resorting to sustained character assasination.
In answer to my original point, the popularity of Reach was not in question but my point was that Mr Hazlehurst's involvement with such expendable, plastic pop would come as a surprise to those who admired the work for which he was better known.
Of course, this is all rather dependent on whether Ronnie actually did have a hand in writing "Reach" and it looks like he didn't (the writing credit is C Dennis / A Todd). It's just about possible that there was some kind of copyright issue that led to him getting royalties, but even that seems doubtful.

Well BBC News have stated that he co-wrote it on the news tonight.
Heard this on the news earlier; what a shame. Talented musician and no doubt a theme tune legend. The idea behind the
Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em
tune was quite genius -- may his works be long remembered.

That's interesting... it was removed from Wikipedia as a long-standing hoax a few hours ago.

It's not uncommon for composers to write under pseudonyms. Hank Marvin has apparently made several contributions to the production music world but few have been under his better-known name. James Aldenham (ITV Schools) was Brian Bennett.
