So sorry to hear of the death of wonderful Radio 1 DJ Andy Kershaw. His musical favorites spanned rock, folk and global sounds. He frequently cited Bob Dylan as his ultimate favourite and described The Clash as the "last word in rock and roll bands". He was just 66 when he died. #AndyKershaw

An #Otwituary for DJ and music lover #AndyKershaw

Today I heard a song I didn’t know I needed;
born at the frontier of music and ethnography.
Bring me real music from an unreal world,
from Rwanda to Rochdale, these curiosities
of sound, the pleasures of the unlikely groove.

Sorry to hear about the death of Andy Kershaw. Not perfect of course. But full of enthusiasm for the likes of The Long Ryders (who rendered him speechless when he introduced them on the OGWT). Remember his relentless championing of the Bhundu Boys. #AndyKershaw

"Revealing his cancer diagnosis in a statement earlier this year, he said he was in “good spirits”, joking he was “determined not to die before Benjamin Netanyahu, Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump and Ant’n’Dec. That should keep me going for a while.”"

Sad news about the passing of DJ Andy Kershaw - a huge fan of my fave US band @miracle_legion - who he often showcased on his BBC radio shows. Strangely they never met - so delighted to be present @EPfestival in 2013 when singer Mark met Andy to thank him #andyKershaw #RIP

One of Andy Kershaw’s first segments for The Old Grey Whistle Test (if not his first) was this great report from the 1984 Monsters of Rock… I guess surviving Motley Crue and David Lee Roth were a baptism of sorts… Our VH banner can be seen clearly…

Oh no, 66 is no age. Andy Kershaw introduced me to some great music in the 80s. First R.E.M. record I ever heard was whilst listening to him on the radio. Time is a bitch. Rest in peace great sir.😥

Once upon a time, #AndyKershaw came to my studio to record a voiceover for a motorbike video. He ignored the No Smoking signs and exhaled smelly fog over the mic all afternoon. But he did arrive on a Harley Davidson, so that was cool.
