Richard Anthony Crispian Francis Prew Hope-Weston (11 July 1940 – 6 March 2005), known professionally as Tommy Vance, was an English radio broadcaster. He was an important factor in the rise of the new wave of British heavy metal (NWOBHM), along with London-based disc jockey Neal Kay, in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Vance was one of the first radio hosts in the United Kingdom to broadcast hard rock and heavy metal in the early 1980s, providing the only national radio forum for both bands and fans. The Friday Rock Show that he hosted gave new bands airtime for their music and fans an opportunity to hear it. He used a personal tag-line of "TV on the radio". His voice was heard by millions around the world announcing the Wembley Stadium acts at Live Aid in 1985.

  • Tommy Vance (* 11. Juli 1940 in Eynsham, Oxfordshire; † 6. März 2005 in Dartford, Kent; eigentlich Richard Anthony Crispian Francis Prew Hope-Weston, auch Rick West) war ein britischer Radiomoderator.

  • Tommy Vance, född 11 juli 1941 i Eynsham, Oxfordshire, död 6 mars 2005, var en brittisk journalist och DJ. Mellan 1978 och 1993 presenterade han på BBC Radio 1, ett av de få brittiska radioprogram där hårdrock och heavy metal spelades. Programmet var en bidragande faktor till genomslaget av New Wave of British Heavy Metal, och omnämns bland annat i texten till Saxons låt Denim And Leather från 1981. Under 1980-talet kom Vance att bli närmast synonym med den tyngre rocken, och mellan 1982 och 1986 var han presentatör på Monsters of Rock-festivalen vid Castle Donington, Leicestershire. (sv)
