I believe one of our own used to play in his band when he played over here. Won’t say who it is but many will know so condolences to him.

Sad news, also terrible to hear about John Prine struggling for life at the moment. It was less than a couple of years ago that I saw him at Cambridge Folk Festival. Mind you, he has not been well for a long time.

Look after yourself now, fella. And for goodness sake, lay off the doughnuts...

I know (already posted an RIP and so did Factual a few hours later, the three of us have done our bit for turning on any TWTDers who were unaware of him). Another one I was lucky enough to see live, even though he was sixty nine at that time he could still blow up a storm.

That's bad news, I used to really like The Arrows.

They had two TV series but never released a single while they were on, from memory it had something to do with a strike of some sort but I can't remember in full.

I'm still trying to work out why this song, from the same year, wasn't a massive hit.

Yup my buddy succumbed.
He did have underlying issues though. Had been taking heart medication as far as I remember from meals on the road.
He had a good life though. Shame he has gone , will miss him, he was a genuinely nice bloke and very kind to me.

I first met Mariner before I posted on here as I worked in a rehearsal space in Portsmouth where they were practicing together.

Sad news that is.
