A former musician and artist manager who appeared on Top of the Pops in 1979, and spent time with bands including The Specials and Madness during his “diverse and interesting” career, is adjusting to a new way of life after his “devastating” terminal lung disease diagnosis.
Bob Black, who appeared on the BBC pop music show as a drummer with The Flying Lizards – known for performing the song Money (That’s What I Want) – and managed bands such as The Passions, the Mo-dettes, and Wayne County and the Electric Chairs, said he has had a “fabulous life”.
