A prominent black actress who defied the stereotypes and portrayed a strong intelligent woman of color. RIP Miss Nicols.

At the moment she'd decided to leave the original show in '67, she happened to be at an event where MLK convinced her not to.   Talk about destiny.

^ Oh that's very sad. I'd like to think that she is joining her brother on that great big spaceship in the sky, but I doubt that she would appreciate the sentiment.
Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

R.I.P. Michael Henderson.  A definitely unique musician.  Mostly known as Miles Davis bass player in the early 70s.  He can be heard on 13 of Miles' releases.  Some notables were A Tribute to Jack Johnson (1971), Live-Evil (1971), In Concert: Live at Philharmonic Hall (1973) and Big Fun (1974). In addition to his work with Miles, Henderson charted several times on the RnB charts.  "Wide Receiver" and probably his biggest "You Are My Starship".  R.I.P.

In honour of Barbara Thompson here three video clips, each about an hour long, of concerts of her own band Paraphernalia, the United Jazz & Rock Ensemble (in the biggest line-up they ever had with a guitar player, a keyboard player, two bass players, two drummers, a percussionist, three sax players, four trumpet players and a trombone player, so fifteen musicians in the whole), Colosseum (she joined Colossseum in 2003 when Dick Heckstall-Smith became ill shortly before they started their tour with an appearance for the German TV-show Rockpalast; he died later that year). All three clips also feature her husband Jon Hiseman (who died in 2018) on drums.
