This guy was a legend, UK Fresh was a landmark in Hip Hop history and his contribution was large.

I remember having this very episode on tape, listened to it again and again, wore it out :)  God I'm 15 years old again!

never thought I'd hear the information society again -what a track!!

wow!! i remember listening to recordings of this show, under the duvet so mum wouldn't catch me!  on a walkman the size of a house brick. this was my gateway to the world beyond top of the pops

R.I.P. Mike Allen. A true legend. #AllensArmy

R.I.P The Boss In London....a definite inspiration to me!!
