There are just far too many good artists dying at the moment. In the last five days alone we've lost Jerry Butler, Gwen McCrae, Ken Parker, Bill Fay and Roberta Flack. This has to stop.
RIP to all of them but particularly Ms Flack who I had the pleasure of meeting once forty years ago when I was a youthful security guard at the Barbican in London and she performed there. I was designated to act as her minder at the merch stall. Very gracious she was too.
"Need To Belong" - Jerry Butler
"Maybe I'll Find Somebody New" - Gwen McCrae
"My Whole World Is Falling Down (Extended Mix)" - Ken Parker
"The Healing Day" - Bill Fay
"When It's Over" - Roberta Flack
You're right - enough is enough!
