Oh **** hell, I had him but hoped it wasnt going to be the case. **** devestated Only just realised he takes a guest lead vocal on The Beach Boys 1996 LP "Stars and Stripes Vol 1". I don't actually own that as it has never been released on vinyl (and apparently it's not very good, hence no Volume 2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted February 10 Moderator Share Posted February 10 1 hour ago, Xann said: Damo Suzuki, lead singer of German band Can, 74. Saw him twice, playing with Mugstar in Liverpool both times. At least one of those has been released as an album but I have a feeling the earlier one at the now defunct Kazimer was too and they were only the support band that night (to Wooden Shjips… maybe). First time it was only when I got into the venue I realised he was on, second time he was obviously who I went to see. Ege Bamyasi, Tago Mago and Future Days are the three definitive Can albums, never the same without him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

il_serpente Posted February 13 VT Supporter Share Posted February 13 A couple of days late, but Seiji Ozawa, long time conductor of the Boston Symphony and probably the first Asian to be given a job conducting such a high profile orchestra. Also turned heads with his unkempt mop of hair, animated conducting style and non-traditional dress. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted February 13 Author Share Posted February 13 Wright also exited his Range Rover in the most ungraceful way ever. A photo that will never not be funny to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
