He is one of those American cultural references I’m aware of, but have had zero experience of. Never watched him, don’t really know what the act is about, I just know the name. Also see the character “Urkel”. Early seasons of The Simpsons has played its part in forming my limited knowledge of this sort of stuff. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted November 11, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted November 11, 2022 Kevin Conroy was the voice of Batman. Absolutely the best portrayal of the character. A huge shame he's gone. I was surprised he was only in his sixties though. He's clearly one of those people that has looked a good few years older than his age for his adult life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very important player on early On-U Sound records, Creation Rebel, African Headcharge, Singers and Players, Barmy Army, Gary Clail, Dub Syndicate, he was on all of them. Also much later, he went on to work with Mark Stewart too. An absolutely huge On-U player Founder member of the Clash and The Flowers of Romance (with Sid Vicious), taught The Slits how to play guitar and of course the good early Public Image Ltd where he and Wobble crafted the absolutely genius Metal Box (which I'm now getting off the shelves to play in his honour) Oh did I mention he used to bunk off school aged 15 to roadie for Yes Very sad one this for me.
