Ronnie wrote many famous theme tunes for television shows such as Only Fools
and Horses, and Last of the Summer Wine, among others. He was a former Musical
Director at the BBC and, as such, was closely involved with the Eurovision
Song Contest and actually conducted the UK entry on no less than seven occasions.
He also had a great love for not only the films of Laurel & Hardy, but
also the musical compositions of Marvin Hatley and Leroy Shields, which
compliment them so brilliantly. I always recall watching BBC's The Generation
Game and hearing familiar Laurel and Hardy music being played in the background
during the games by Ronnie and his Orchestra.
One day Tony Hawes, another Helpmates member, took the late- Peter Elkins
and me behind the scenes of ITV's Looks Familiar show, and introduced us
to Ronnie, which is how he also came to be a member.
With encouragement from myself and other Sons Ronnie researched into the
music of the Laurel and Hardy films and then produced his first album - Laurel
and Hardy's Music Box Vol. 1. He used his best BBC musicians and did a wonderful
job; something I witnessed first-hand as I was fortunate enough to be invited
to sit in on the actual recording. We then launched the album at our Helpmates'
Convention in 1979, at Leeds Castle.
Ronnie then joined us for the Hollywood 80 trip, where he actually met the
man himself - Marvin T Hatley. Marvin was moved to tears when Ronnie played
him the album. This led to a second "Music Box" album which was later released
on CD along with Vol.1. Ronnie performed live at another one of our Leeds
Castle events, with his whole Orchestra, which made it a great night for
all present. Conventioneers in the USA also had the pleasure of seeing and
hearing Ronnie, when he played 'live' at the Las Vegas 92 Convention.
