Rip Sly.
One of the greatest musical geniuses of the last century.
What great joy you brought us.
COPD apparently , so he did well to make it to 82. Lived out his last days broke and in a camper van in LA. ![]()
Amazing he made it that far considering his lifestyle.
I still love the man though.
Brian Wilson has passed. Rip
I had tickets to see him in Germany but it ended up being cancelled due to the pandemic.
Iāll have to make do with the albums. Always his strongest suite anyway.
So much more than their surf and sand reputation. Wilson played a huge role in defining popular music.
I watched a film or a tv series about his life. It was fascinating how he created all the sounds and sad he had alot of personal and health issues. I will forever remember the Beach Boys sound. Every time one of their up tempo songs was played on the radio, it felt the sun was coming out of the radio and brightening up your day.
This was my parentās favourite song and my favourite too.
As a youngster in the 1890s, I used to drive around in my old Volvo listening to an old beach boys tape including several slightly mangled sped-up tracks - canāt understand why the girls werenāt all over meā¦?
They were such a brilliant band and so many of their songs are iconic.
1990s (before I get accused of being @cynicaloldgitās younger brother)
Iām just reduced to tears watching that now. Itās perfect, isnāt it?
This was described by Paul McCartney as the best love song ever writtenā¦
Rest in Peace Lord Henry. He was responsible for hosting some of our most iconic music events in the country. And anecdotally, a pure gentleman.
I had a proper āOMG my life is a lieā moment years ago when I learned not only was Bad Company not an American band but an English one, but that it was made up of half of Free, who were also English.
A guy who seemed to be about for an age, popping up in all manner of filmsā¦
Heart attack got him - RIP
Mr Blonde was one of my favourite Tarantino characters. Not a good 24 hours.
Heavy heart break in Texas tonight.
State Officials have confirmed 13 of the girls from Camp Mystic have passed away. Ages 7-10 years old . There are at least 20 remaining unaccounted for and still missing from this tragic flood. Our deepest condolences to the families of those lost.
More MAGA/Republican caused deaths. Remember deplorables - you voted for this ![]()
