That’s very sad news. The fun and comedy in their songs I think made some not take them too seriously but their songwriting and musicianship was top notch. A cracking little band. Loved so many of their songs.

Not really my cup of tea, but good musicians and apparently popular at punk gigs.

It is our family tradition to watch Chas and Dave's xmas special every Christmas Day afternoon. Channel 5 show it every year,and never get tired of rewatching it.

It is a sad day today, RIP Chas.

Sad day, a really underrated musician. Some of the lyrics and refrains are really clever. Ain’t no pleasing you stands on its own as a great song.

Good old Knees up duo. Saw them a couple of times at festivals. RIP Chas. Their poetic license was second to none.. i.e.

Well, I been workin' hard to reach me targate,

To earn a few bob to take me through the Stargate...

Sheer genius

It's sad news, but not unexpected - they were on the last series of Jools Holland and Chas looked very ill.

This is one of my favourites, sung by Dave but some great 'piana' by Chas. It's a great idea for a song, too - a good example of their clever wordplay.

Chas and Dave music gave me some really happy times at parties and left me with wonderful memories of those days. A real down to earth guy who never fogot his roots, but also had a good innings so probably had a smile on his face when he went.

I saw them once at White Hart Lane - they did a short 20-30 minute set on the pitch prior to a game against Palace, must have been very early 90s. As it happens I specifically remember having a migraine before that game - had tunnel vision / the lot, and a super-loud helping of Chas & Dave did not help.

I also have a vague (non-migraine-affected) recollection that they did something similar at Selhurst once, but I may be mis-remembering that.

They did, it was during the Venables/Goldberg era but cant remember the game as I got there late.

Anyway, RIP Chas.

Aha - I had forgotten, I also saw them supporting Quo at their (somewhat mis-named) "End of the Road" concert at Selhurst Park in 1984. That was when I first realise they were a lot more than just a comedy music act.

("Unlike Quo" - just before anyone else writes it ...)

I bloody loved Chas n Dave - saw them many, many times - great exponents of London & music hall songs as well as being very clever lyricists. Massively underrated as musicians, due to a few 'novelty' songs, which really pisses me off - as does the BBC getting Mickey Hazard on to try & sum up his musical career.
