Supergrass is a slang reference to informer. Originating in London as "grasses" in the late-1930s, it became super-grasses in the 1970s as a coinage by journalists in the early 1970s. The terms has been used extensively to describe Irish Republican Army prisoners turned by the British secret services in reward for immunity from prosecution and/or money. In his political memoir, Killing Rage, Eamon Collins describes the process by which he was broken and turned into a supergrass while in British custody.

I remember we had a great conversation about Elvis that day & when I saw his record collection, it blew me away. He was the first to play our debut single 'Caught By The Fuzz' on the radio which I know brought us to people's attention. He was a big influence to so many. We'll miss him." [1]
