I'm sure they will, because it's the BBC
But it's still fucking ridiculous.
He's a paedophile and that's fucked up. But to whitewash over any success he had in the charts as if he's an illegitimate mongoloid stepchild is just as embarrassing as acknowledging the fact that one of the UK's biggest glam pop acts of the day was a kiddy toucher.
Phil Spector is a murdering shitbat mental sociopath, but people still hold his Wall of Sound technique as a triumph of british musical history.
I'm in no way defending Gary Glitter. But the fact that people don't even dare whisper his name anymore, never mind playing his records seems a bit fucking stupid.

I don't know the answer to the conundrum, but my gut feeling is that pretending bad things never happen isn't quite right.
And that horrible cunt Phil Spector* produced "Be My Baby", and was/is an utter pig. And murderer.
And Mick Jagger has always voted Tory. When he's been in the country.
