What a fantastic actor RIP

 

[jimmiz]

The circumstances of his death seem terrible.
His wife and dog found dead next to him.

"no foul play suspected" I guess either suicide pact or maybe carbon monoxide poisoning? Very sad, regardless. Especially his wife who was much his junior

 

[Mekka]

Never not enjoyed watching a Hackman performance. Seen a couple of his films recently and realised again how good he is.

Very sad. So young too with an iconic voice

RIP Roy Ayers " Everybody loves the sunshine"

 

[The Sun God]

really does feel like a generation in black music is leaving us. "Everybody loves.." was always played by Norman Jay at the Big Chill (easy @Marts73 wherever you are) and the sound of a thousand lazy summer afternoons in London parks, everyone armed with essential kit (Red Stripe, spliff and Raybans). There are only 5/6 things I actually miss from England and one is London parks in the summer. I picked up Virgin Ubiquity when BBE released it in 2004 and it blew my mind. Tarzan - what a tune + some mega Osunlade and Ame remixes for the ravers.

So sad. Way too young

I met him a few times at parties. Slightly shy but a lovely guy. Used to play out quite a lot. I remember him and Felix Basement Jaxx doing a fundraiser for victims of the Fukushima nuclear disaster

@Robder of this parish was desperately after his Grace Jones remix years ago, which IIRC never saw the light of day

DJ Funk RIP.

Always quite liked the ghetto house sound. Another pioneer gone.

Definitely not, seems like foul play unfortunately.

Police are saying natural causes- she died of a virus and he died a week later. He had advanced Alzheimer's so he probably starved to death or died of thirst without even realising it Horrible way to go.
