He is (or at least he was) an extreme rightie! 
My favorite song of his is "On the Border".
For me it was high school and everyone was into disco, which I hated (still do.) Thankfully, I did have a few sane friends that got me into Be Bop Deluxe 
I gravitated toward a public station locally called KPFT, partly because a friend had said he heard them smoking pot on the air! Considering they were (and are still) a Pacifica station, I don't doubt that kind of thing happened 
However, even public stations aren't immune from drastic (and unwanted) programming changes. The University of Houston had an award-winning jazz format for their station. However, when the city's only classical station turned into an alt-rock format, UH decided to dump the jazz in favor of taking over the classical format for the city. They gave their jazz library to another university, who then mixed it all together with their soul/r&b format. That didn't work for me as far as listening to jazz went, and I wasn't the only one that reacted that way.
I like both, and enjoyed the commercial classical station when they were on the air. They would even play PDQ Bach. When I called the public one to suggest that, I was told that their listeners wouldn't appreciate the humor!
That dj probably didn't know what he was talking about, or had management that didn't because when Schickele came to town, Jones Hall was packed with classical music fans
One show I missed the most from the old jazz station was on "Acid Jazz". Plenty of experimental and edgy jazz there.
Loved the great photos of the beautiful scenery, and the historical figures...
Damn! One learns a lot here on DU!
But I still like Daltrey's cover version better.
Well, maybe NOT after I heard the entire Pratt version.
But here's the Daltrey cover for what it's worth.
