Belated I'm afraid, but I've just found out that Herbie Flowers died last Thursday...


Very sad news...

RIP Wojciech Paszkowski (passed away today). :( One of the greatest Polish dub/voice actors in history. The superstar of 90's dubs, and the voice that molded the childhoods of me and other Zillennials. That hurt.

Oh that is sad - one of my favourite French singers of all time.

R.I.P lovely lady.
Is it any wonder that the monkey's confused?

RIP Greg Khin (of the Greg Khin Band). One of the biggest two hit wonders of the 80s has left us. Those of us of a certain age undoubtedly remember hearing TGKB on the radio. Weird Al even parodied his song "Jeopardy." RIP Greg.

John Mayall in Ostia (Rome), 1982.
One of the best concerts I've ever been at.

A big loss.

John Mayall, age 90.

wow.

Bluesbreakers: Clapton, Jack Bruce, Green, Fleetwood, McVie, Mick Taylor, John Hiseman, Dick Heckstall - Smith.

From Mayall: Cream, Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac, Colosseum, one of The Rolling Stones.

I had the chance to see him in concert 2015 October 3rd . (Belgium, Liège, at The Refektor, small venue).
The room was crowded, the group that accompanied him was young and excellent . In addition, the backing musicians showed great joy and respect for this 80 y.o.+ old bluesman who was always alert and charismatic.
How lucky to have been there!
Thanks John

RIP

RIP to the late great John Mayall of the famed Bluesbreakers, age 90. One of the guys I'd listen to for hours trying to pick up the blues harp as a teenager.
