Sad indeed 
Mad as a brush he was. I remember seeing him in the sixties when I was around sixteen-ish. I used to think: 'Who's that old git on top of the pops?' 'Should'nt he be collecting his pension now? 
The way you think when you are young eh? 
He would only have been coming up for his forties
He did wonderful things in his life for countless people and was never changed by his fame. Much to be admired.

Yep, very sad. I guess a lot of us grew up watching him on TV (TOTP's etc). Didn't realise he was 84, but then we're all getting on i suppose!
RIP JS

My first memory of Sir Jimmy was in the early sixties on Radio Luxembourg with his Teen and Twenty Disc Club (or the T.T.D.C. as he called it)
I seem to remember he actually met Elvis Presley in person
Indeed a great man who will be sadly missed in many quarters
RIP
