Resist We Much
Jerry Springer. "Be good to yourself, and one another."
He sure had a good run.Calypso singer Harry Belafonte of Banana Boat fame - Dead at 96
An underappreciated talent.Gordon lightfoot joins the list. He made it to 84
Didn't they just stop playing his songs once he was convicted ?Well, tie me kangaroo down, sun arise and the amazingly good two little boys wont ever be heard again now Rolf is dead
I'm glad that his wife and daughter stuck by him. But I'm curious as to what they really thought and felt, especially his daughter.Did his time, got out, then died
Saddest thing was that he was dodgy when it came to his daughters friends.......Saddest thing was he was a great painter too
I'm not surprised. Why in the world would the murals of an unrepentant, convicted paedophile be left up ?and so many of his huge murals have been painted over
No one's death is a celebratory matter as far as I'm concerned, but I do find some obituaries really stretch it, and Chas' I'm afraid is one of those. The papers have been milking the fact that he played "a few gigs with the Beatles" in 1960, but it doesn't really go anywhere and looks far more royal than it ever actually was. Next there'll be obituaries on the bus drivers that used to drive the buses that George Harrison and Paul McCartney travelled to school on before Paul met John !Chas Newby
I've long had a lot of time for Pete Brown. A lot of people aren't really aware of him but he did quite a bit more than co-write some of Cream's stuff. I'm currently reading, and last month finished, a book in which his views were sought and that's what I know him best for. He was one of the most articulate and knowledgeable commentators on rock and pop happenings during the 1960s, and his revelations stemmed from his actual memories, which made him very listenable.Pete Brown
