A.k.a. Ronald Ernest Alfred Roker
Pop songwriter - producer One of the most prolific and successful pop songwriters of the 1970s, Ron Roker was responsible for a great deal of the memorable hits of that decade, among them The Fortunes' Storm in a Teacup', Tina Charles' Love Bug and Dance Little Lady Dance, and Barry Blue's Dancin' (On A Saturday Night)' and Do You Wanna Dance / Miss Hit And Run What is less well known is that he was also responsible for two superb and much-loved pop-styled theme tunes from ITV lunchtime children's shows: Inigo Pipkin and The Adventures of Rupert Bear - which was not only a substantial hit single but has also remained familiar to each successive generation since.
