If anything, his influence on pop and rock, cinema, theatre, literature and fashion has deepened since his passing on January 10, 2016.

To mark the anniversary, Post Music returns to put together a series of podcasts looking back over his remarkable career through a series of interviews with the Yorkshire musicians who helped him become the creative force he became.
