Joe Longthorn's Grave - Famous Graves

[@vforvictor7575]

Joe was one of the greatest British entertainers ever RIP Joe

[@CliffTaylor-rz9dd]

Three times watch joe what a class act God bless you joe .

[@sargee97]

Joe Longthorne was a person of great talent and a true star. I myself am from a Romany traveling background and I personally think Joe made our people extremely proud. A legend of our heritage and he was a wonderful person who was kind and generous to all. It couldn't of been easy for Joe to achieve what he did, sadly there are many that are prejudice to the Romany community and sadly to people that are of the LGBTQ community also. I personally have seen the great hardship of LGBTQ people within the Romany traveling community due to prejudice from our own people. Joe was an amazing person with amazing talent who helped break down barriers for the Romany traveling community and the LGBTQ community alike. I didn't realise that he passed away on the 3rd of August, my own father died on the 3rd of August in 2012, he was himself a fantastic singer and was a great fan of Joe. I hope they have met up in heaven and had a sing song together, I'm sure they would get along amazingly well. God bless Joe and thanks for all the hours of enjoyable entertainment you gave to us all. Say hello to my darling mum and dad my lovely and continue your amazing talent in heaven. Love always ❤xx

[@williamgallacher4069]

I was working in a pub called the cockneys in the old Kent road we had a jazz group playing this evening,who should come in to see the singer but Jo longthorne after about 20 mins he was persuaded to sing a couple of songs ,needless to say he ended up doing 3 hours ,he was a gentle man we had a drink after we closed he was very friendly .We all liked him and asked if he’d come back sometime but he never did but to see him live with a ordinary Mike he was brilliant ,miss him

[@karenprice8699]

Joe Longthornes version of the song.."Love Is All"...totally amazing!! RIP ❤❤❤

[@Suecutler86]

Joe was an amazing person. Had the pleasure of meeting Joe a few times as we had mutual friends. He is sadly missed. X

[@jayb8298]

Does anyone else find they get quite emotional watching Paul's videos?...to think nowadays there isn't talent like Joe or any of the others Paul visits...Glad I grew up seeing most of these people perform on telly....great video mate...👍

[@wendyjones7753]

Yes.. sometimes very emotional xx

[@annfahy2589]

❤

[@paulanewland2533]

I agree with you. Brings back happy memories of a more simplistic time. I try to practice mindfulness including doing yoga but it can be difficult sometimes.

[@davewilson7565]

Yes I do

[@theagunton3811]

He was beautiful x

[@annettemingay2970]

It is so nice that he is still remembered and visited, not an old age to die, but sometimes time is not on our side, such a good person. R.I.P. Joe.

[@eredison8584]

I backed Joe many times in the early 80s.In fact I bought an electric piano from his MD.He was an extremely talented man,with a superb voice,especially when he did his impersonation of Shirley Bassey.

[@williamharper8283]

I have had the pleasure of meeting him, he had no airs or graces. He was a true talent. J P..D Longthorne R.I.P!

[@mariedanilowicz8903]

Yes joe was a one off the best in the business. Home grown british talent. A very humble human being,The boss or simply known as OUR JOE

[@HaydnGuite]

A fabulous entertainer and a genuinely lovely man. Up in heaven, he must've been stunned to see Mike Yarwood arrive. A fond farewell Mr Longthorne ❤ 😊

[@YvonneHarris-ov8rp]

[@theagunton3811]

[@andreahall6007]

Saw Joe many times from early days to last shows unbelievable underrated talent beautiful person inside and out such a tragic life health wise his voice was absolutely incredible gave me goose bumps he will be sadly missed and loved ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@joanhammond5516]

he was a great ebtertainer I only saw him on TV thanks payl

[@paulb3517]

Spot on Paul its a shame well known people in life are sometimes forgotten graveside in death....

[@Finglesham]

I am really pleased that people specify burial ,both my wife I have, just to keep a green open space in this crowded island. Joe , being a Roman Catholic, would be in a separate section of the Cemetery and RCs usually specify burial. Very sensible. He worked for years with nasty illness amazing how he carried on.

[@crystaldance5731]

Thanks Paul for this one he was one of my heroes I just adored him so talented sorely miss him rip joe ❤️😊👍🏻

[@shaye6598]

I have just watched Joe Longthorne This is your Life with Michael Aspel. What a lovely, talented man Joe was. Taken too soon.💛✨

[@veronicawhite297]

loved watching him as well great singer rip and god bless xxxx

[@traciemarsh1611]

he was a very lovely man. beautiful grave rip joe

[@dawnnield8841]

Joe was very talented me and my ex hubby went to see him in Blackpool he was amazing I’ll never forget it 😊😊

[@sharonlegg85]

I saw Joe many years ago when he appeared at Butlins holiday camp in Minehead. He was singing “Delilah” as Tom Jones. He looked down to me and stopped to ask me my name. He then continued singing but instead of “Why Why Why Delilah” he changed it to “Why, Why Why Sharon” I was only 16 and so embarrassed. Means a lot now over 55 years later. Xxx

[@kayjackson3888]

He was amazing 👏

[@Sdsacanita196]

Ps, I'm glad you stood the flowers up, I was really hoping you would xx

[@PMfitness74]

My dad and I went to see Joe in our local town. Amazing voice and glad I heard wind beneath your wings live. Never forget shaking his hand at end of gig. A true talent 🙏

[@charlottespurway912]

Lovely headstone and flowers and photo too!!! Rest in peace Joe longthorn grave 👼🙏👼🙏👼🙏

[@martinestimpson5574]

He was very talented bless him he was so young to.not many like Joe ❤❤

[@sue-boo]

Another lovely video respectfully done. I met Joe at least 40 years ago. He had been performing in one of the local venues and had spent the night at a friend of mines. I met him the next morning. A genuinely good guy. So friendly and had a certain charm about him.

[@malcomgilham4017]

Hi Paul. I think Joe was much more appreciated by his adoring fans than he was by the profession. Much underated performer.

[@Do.not.judge.]

Joe was a relation on my mother's side. He was from Hull.Hessle road gave access to the docks and was then a huge fishing industry, my dad worked on the trawlers.Hessle road is one of the main veins in Hull, people who live in Hull they work hard and make things that last for ever. Joe worked hard giving of himself I didn't know he was that young though x

[@suemckenna2430]

I love the way Paul introduces the person whose last resting place he is visiting , he takes such a good time to give us an insight to them .

[@tony-yp6qk]

Great singer Another great video has always Paul 👍

[@johnrice7076]

Joe was an amazing performer and an inspiration to many people with the way he fought his illness he will be sadly missed but never forgotten RIP Joe

[@phil7301]

This man was special, but he never got the exposure he deserved. If the States had got hold of him he would have been a world wide talent . Great video again 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@isabelrussell4068]

I remember seeing him in Northampton his clothes hung on him he had lost so much weight from cancer but his voice was haunting so beautifull The tears rolled down my face that night. His music touches my heart

[@davidclarkson7687]

Truly amazing TALENTED man he went through so much and tried to stay positive. You truly have visited some one so special who will never be forgotten by so Many ❤️🙏❤️

[@rosemarywestwood258]

I have seen joe quite a few times.I knew joe he was absolutely amazing. Joe was ill for 33 years. Joe was a inspiration to people with those who suffered with that illness.

[@LadyDoe17]

The first time I heard Joe Longthorne, he was playing in Paignton in Devon, my late husband and I were taking out 3 children out for a walk along the beach, when we got to the theatre we could hear the show, so we sat on the steps outside and listened for a while. My husband went in the next morning and bought tickets for the following evening in Torquay. We say him several times after that and he never disappointed. I still have my late husband’s video, c.d. And dvd collection. Loved him.

[@marcellosgarbini759]

Thank you once again

[@SuperVonny]

Saw Joe so many times over the years, I’d take my mum all over to see him but mostly at Blackpool. What a talented man, for me a National treasure and there’s never been anyone like him. Our unique and talented Joe, we miss him. RIP Joe, always remembered fondly. Thank you for this video xx

[@ellesee7079]

It was so nice to see that people are still going to pay their respects. Such a shame, we were robbed of such a talent! Thanks for bringing back some memories. I'm going to look him up on KZbin. Great vid as ever 👌🏻 👏🏻

[@darranweston9425]

I watched Joe regularly and he had one hell of a voice as well as being a superb impressionist. Once again Paul, you pulled it out the bag. Joe was an institution, to see you honour him in the wonderful and respectful way you always do is a huge tribute to you. Thank you once again.

[@philipkirby2343]

I met Joe in Tenerife where he had a holiday home not long before he died .He was charming and funny despite being very ill. RIP Joe xx

[@rosemarywestwood258]

I knew joe he was a inspiration to others suffering with the illness that he had. I saw him in a load of shows. Even if he was ill he still went on and gave 100per cent with his shows. I thought the world of joe. But everyone loved him god bless you sweetheart xxxx

[@UnusualThings1]

Thank you 🙏

[@elainemurphy2406]

Brilliant man, rip x

[@alygodsquad]

I first saw Joe at the Savaas Club in Usk, must have been mid 80s. It was an old fashioned set up, we dined at a candlelit table by the stage and then watched the show. I had a kiss on the cheek from him at the end, gosh I must have been about 19, so long ago ! Then saw him in St Davids Hall in Cardiff in the 90s, he was truly a world class act. Superb voice and fabulous entertainer. Thanks for the video ! RIP Joe, you were amazing x

[@MrRoxyloxy]

I love what u do so fantastic I'm a great fan of yours 🤛

[@wendyjones7753]

He was so good at everything he achieved...may he always be remembered...I feel so sorry for our young kid of today..these artists are few and far between.. they are getting lost in the hustle and bustle of life today... thank you Paul for keeping them alive in our minds... if only for a few moments... they are once again remembered with love xxx well done Paul.. another amazing work of art xxx r.i p. Joe

[@davidboyce8683]

I did not know he had passed away.Thank you for this video Paul . Thank you for posting this.

[@casihawkins2205]

Went to see Joe longthorne with my friends you could see he was quite ill at the time but performed brilliantly he was one of the entertainers that you could watch for hours as he put so much in to it and he's impressions of Shirley Bassey was spot on and Sammy Davis the list was endless he had a brilliant voice and was very funny and its so sad that he died at just 64 so talented he will be surely missed by the public he's fans and a big loss to the entertainment world RIP.

[@debbiemaclaren2143]

Big. Thumbs. Up.

[@jeanmartin2381]

Joe came to Torquay a lot my daughter and I went to all his shows also saw him in Blackpool still where his tee shirts n still have membership badge loved him and miss him a lot

[@alisonfowler6224]

Joe longthorne was such a fun , caring and humble man , along with his inspirational talent . He would arrive at venues full of energy for each performance, when he was unwell he would step on stage, something wonderful & magical would happen, you would feel the love for him & from him in every part of each venue he played. His army of fans he would fondly call friends , he would never forget a face . Joe was always amazed by the loyalty, support & love we gave him whole heartedly. A beautiful soul taken far too soon ! God bless you Joe , memories live longer than dreams for sure ! He will always be my music 🎶 that's what friends are for 🎶 . Thankyou for making this video 👍 stay safe ...

[@paulanewland2533]

Another amazing vids Paul. Thank u

[@bluenose1744]

I remember him as a good entertainer, seemed to keep himself to himself. Not one for doing daft things like some jumped up celebrities do. Good man and seemed to have a good life despite his illnesses. Something of an inspiration I think. Thanks Paul.

[@David_Mc_Our_God_Reigns]

I’m a blue myself

[@jrbs]

Very interesting. Not sure where I've been for all these years, but why have I not heard of Joe Longthorne??🤔

[@BarbaraRooke]

[@susanhawkins217]

Lovely lovely man, loved watching him.

[@marybarratt2649]

He was so talented and a little underrated. I wondered what had happened to Joe. I admire anyone who is a good entertainer and he was very likeable. Thank you for the upload. It is a way for viewers to pay their respects. Too young to pass.

[@andreazippy1722]

Great vid. With me been born from Hull or Ull as we say. I had family that knew Joe. Joe loved his roots of Ull and Hessle ( Essle road) road. He never forgot the people of Ull as he had a great turn out for his funeral cortage to go past all the people.

[@suzielynne9421]

An amazingly multi talented man, I only ever saw him on TV. A true entertainer.

[@denisesanders5589]

In my humble opinion I imagine a graveyard is the best place to hang out in Blackpool. Bit undeerwhelming is Blackpool. Cheers Paul. Always enjoy your short films.
