^ Yes I agree, strange how they all seem to be occurring together. Condolences on your father.
Jefferson Airplane, The Doors, Grateful Dead and others where in that psych/folk/rock era that had an influential impact going forward. RIP Paul.

Never known a time like this. It seems like every day one of our favourites (musicians, actors etc etc) passes on.
My own father passed away over Christmas and since then it's just been unbelievable. I guess we have to expect more of the same too. The members of those bands that started late 60s/early 70s will now be getting fairly old, so I think this is will be commonplace from now. It's very sad of course, but we have to try and celebrate just how much they have done. |

That's a real shame. I have extremely fond memories of discovering his work on Rising. RIP |

This is one of those days, and items of news, which genuinely speaks to an entire generation, be they rock, pop, or culture aficionados, or merely "there at the time".
For those of us over 50, certainly, Bowie was huge. He shaped, and influenced, so many it is impossible to merely name them here. Even more than Squire, Bowie was a cultural icon, because his appeal leapt across genres in a way Chris did not. Naturally, his musical legacy will last for many years. In years to come, I truly believe he will be regarded and spoken about in the same breath as Sinatra or Presley, his impact was that big. I pray for his family, I recognise very clearly the fragility and tragedy of our short time on this earth, but celebrate the talent and joy he gave to so many people. The loss on earth is absolutely a massive gain in heaven today. RIP. |

Good to see you Daniel even on such a sad day, I hope your health improves. I've been meaning to properly attribute the co-authorship of his PA biography, and today I have done that.

I guess that everyone understands that I am devastated. Even if I am not active so much on PA due to health and personal problems I still listen to music. What a sad day.
Ground control to Major Tom...See you soon Mr. Jones.
