I still have a soft spot for Planxty, along with a couple of their albums.   Mark Radcliffe played a track from one of them and it took me back a long way . . .

Not seen anything 'official' I don't think but there are a few reports online that Mike Harrison of Spooky Tooth has died.  They were only mentioned on here the other day...

OH NO NO NO. I so love Spirogyra.  Just a moment ago I was looking at a listing for another reissue of St Radigunds.  This is awful.

Shame - never exactly easy listening, but often rewarding. RIP Cecil.

I heard yesterday and Eric Bogle has now made public that John Campbell Munro passed away yesterday after a long battle with cancer.

John was a fabulous musician, songwriter and human being. His work with Eric and with Colcannon will stand the test of time.

A great loss.

Oh no. Such a lovely man, singer, writer and performer. That’s put a damper on my holiday today.
