54 :o

aah that's bad news. I wasn't a particular fan but he always seemed a decent chap.

Batley born and bred and he was proud of it.

Great guy and always came across as a smoothy, in his case he wasn't one of the "guys who had all the luck"

Looks like the Grim Reaper is on a spree - Johnny Cash/Robert Palmer.

May I direct his scythe to Michael Barrymore?

Must be some fantastic music up in heaven with all the talent thats up there especially my favourite the late great sam cooke.

I fear the devil has the best tunes, and heaven gets all the banjo players (with the possible exception of chet atkins).
