More sad news reported in the press today. Florian Schnieder, Co-Founder of Kraftwerk passed away last month just after his 73rd birthday. He lost his battle with Cancer !!!

I have been a life long fan of Kraftwerk and their Electronic Music forms a basis of many genre of music these days. eg Hip-Hop. To see them live in the early days (70's) was truly awe inspiring. Such great memories.

 

Sadly we also lost Dave Greenfield, keyboard player with 'The Stranglers', another group that has influenced me over the decades. R.I.P.

 

2020 is turning out to be a b*st*rd of a year ever !!!

 

Thanks for the tunes guys      'No More Heroes'

Little Richard was probably the founder of rock and roll, but like chasnbon has said, the title of 'king' will always belong to Elvis...

 

In fact, I had never even heard of him until I was older, so you can tell my late sister always belted the Elvis songs out when I was a nipper!

 

However, I hope he is at peace, the same age my mum... I won't say a good innings, because if he suffered like my mum did this last 15 years, it wasn't that good, was it?

 

Be at peace x
