    Just wanted to say a huge thanks Joe for the pleasure you have given over many years. I have been privileged to see you many times and at every show you always gave your all. A huge talent that was not utilised by the TV producers who seem to think Joe wasn't cool enough to put out. How wrong they all were he was Mr. Entertainment to his boots with such an amazing voice that had pathos, warmth all wrapped up in singing us a story in every song. Oh buggar the cancer that eventually took you away. We won't see the likes of him again always worked his socks off since a child. I have nearly finished his autobiography and a lot of his life was hard. Still he has left us with his music. Bye Joe will miss you dreadfully

    As I'm watching the One Show after his burial in Blackpool today, no mention of this great performer. Only love island and people baking cakes mentioned. Disgraceful BBC.

    The term "Class" is devisive. It never recognises those who genuinely deserve it. To say this man never got the recognition he deserved is the understatement of a generation. Joe Longthorne, a one off, world class performer to the end...

    As a young girl in Northern England, I was so inspired by the great Joe Longthorne. He had that extra bit of magic that you can never be taught, but that is yours by the Grace of God. Even these many years later, as I live many thousands of miles away from the town in which I was born - Scunthorpe, very close to Mr. Longthorne's home town of Hull, I remember Joe Longthorne as one of the greatest Entertainers I ever saw "Live" onstage. He has been through so much, and has been a Warrior throughout. God Bless him.....always. Very respectfully, a fellow entertainer, Toni Morrell

    You know this is a lucky guy. I say that because he loves what he does and to be honest he's amazing at it. Wouldn't we all want that! To do what we love and be frigging good at it! He's the kind of old school hard working guy that if he had 2 broken legs he would still crawl on that stage to entertain. I think cancer has a long wait before it takes this guy. He's attitude to cancer is fuck off, I have a job to do.
    I've seen him twice and it was a privilege to watch.
    Mr Joe Longthorne you are an inspiration. Keep going buddy and keep putting smiles on people's faces .

Never the less he's up there with them in my book!
