The The Who agent replies, ''Well, he currently lives in Golders Green Crematorium, where he has been for the past 34 years. But maybe, if you meet at a round table with some candles and glasses, you will be able to talk to him'', he said.
Well, a nice try from the Olympics staff, I really would love to listen Keith again.
