Many people mistakenly refer to Micky as “Mickey”.  Take it from me, he preferred to be called Micky – Period!!! , even though on many websites, album covers and newspaper articles he was referred to as Mickey.

You will, however, sometimes see his name spelt as Mickey on this website.  This is because lots of people still remember him as Mickey and that’s OK by me.  I just wanted to put the record straight!
