Very sad to see Robbie go. So much of my youth was tied up in music from "The Band" with Dylan and in their own right. Robbie's s/t solo album released in 1987 is one of the best releases of the 1980s (and features Peter Gabriel on vocals on the stellar "Fallen Angel" and on keys and drum programming on "Broken Arrow").

R.I.P.  Robbie Robertson. 

My youth is passing away as I sit here.  Sad, very sad.  I was able to see Bob Dylan and The Band 1974 Tour.

RIP Robbie Robertson, guitarist with The Band, solo artist and film music composer, long time collaborator with Martin Scorsese. Died aged 80 after a long illness. I loved The Band and some of his solo material but know little about his film-music but he was a huge talent and a man of integrity.

The family of Bafta-winning composer and conductor Carl Davis say that he has died, aged 86.
Davis was the musical force behind a host of film and TV hits including The French Lieutenant's Woman, The World at War, Our Mutual Friend and the BBC's 1995 adaptation of Pride and Prejudice.

Very sad.... his music behind 'The World At War' was incredibly poignant and memorable... may be RIP

I somehow missed the boat on hearing about the death of Paul Reubens (aka Pee Wee Herman). Very sad news. RIP Pee Wee.

This one made me very sad today, Paul Reubens aka Pee-wee Herman.  I was a big Pee-wee Herman fan.  R.I.P.

Indeed, very sad... heard this on the radio when I woke up this morning... even Radio 4 broke out of their usual monologue to play an excerpt from 'Take It To The Limit'... Cry

Terribly sad news, indeed; so young. What a great voice, and she leaves us some very fine albums.
