I've recently learned that Gershon Kingsley passed away several months ago. What a giant. R.I.P. |

I remember being upset when Asterix writer Rene Goscinny died. It was 1978 and I was in Grade 10. Hard to believe the co-creators died 42 years apart.

I just checked and was surprised to find - unless I just missed it - no mention of the passing of the wonderful Neil Innes - the less flamboyant but no less gifted half of the Bonzo Dog Band songwriting team with Viv Stanshall, and of course honorary Python. Died unexpectedly on 29 December 2019 - just over three weeks before Terry Jones.

This had completely passed me by!!
 I'm upset that i'd somehow not known about this!! Neil was a tremendous song writer and comic.. the Bonzo's are one of my favourites and the Rutles / Rutland weekend television was just pure genius. I'm absolutely gutted RIP Neil |

Just saw that on the allmusic site about Bill Withers. Sad. He had some really good ones. I remember a whole bunch of students singing "lean on me" while walking over a bridge in college. RIP Bill.

Sad news, he had a great voice, some super songs; his songs reminds me of summer time in my early teens

Alexander Thynn, 7th Marquess of Bath, Owner of Longleat, Died today aged 87 after contracting Coronavirus. A real English eccentric; the country is poorer for his passing!  Edited by Cosmiclawnmower - April 05 2020 at 13:33 |

The beast known as the Corona virus has taken away one of the world's biggest treasures.
RIP John Prine, the man who's music carried me through some of the most difficult times of my life. No one could express himself quite like "the mailman", his lyrics could express feelings like no other, his humor always hit home and his heart was always in everything he wrote. He overcame throat cancer but still came back with a vengeance with even more heart and soul in his voice. Farewell, John Prine, I will miss you immensely.
But you will live on forever. |

I had a friend who passed away in 2013 who would play "Sam Stone" and "Illegal Smile" into the ground.

Çağlan Tekil, a metal pioneer in Turkey best known as a music critic and radio host, passed away at an early age. He wasn't globally-renowned, but was a very important figure in my country. R.I.P.
