As well as having given the world the mega-smash
Love Me, Love My Dog , Peter Shelley was the man behind Alvin Stardust and produced and wrote most of the first Alvin Stardust album, as well as having been the original incarnation of that character.
Excitingly, that LP doesn't have a Wikipedia page, therefore, we're going to have to go in blind on this one.
