Grande Pablo 109 Posted July 30, 2013 My new best friends at Gonzo Multimedia are reporting that Mick Farren - of The Deviants - collapsed on stage last night and never regained consciousness. Cult hero and likely to be widely reported. Gonzo had just signed The Deviants. Guardian Unlimited obit. http://www.theguardian.com/music/musicblog/2013/jul/29/charles-shaar-murray-tribute-mick-farren Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banshees Scream 110 Posted July 30, 2013 I didn't know that JJ Cale wrote Eric Clapton's "Cocaine". I never heard of him so he must have been very underrated. Neil Young compared him to Hendrix so he must have been exceptional. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,657 Posted July 31, 2013 Some interest in entertainment pages regarding the impending release of three 1983 tracks recorded by Michael Jackson and Freddie Mercury. Can I suggest they're put onto one CD and titled the Flogging a Dead Nonce EP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the_engineer 1,415 Posted August 4, 2013 A benefit concert has been held for Wizzard saxophonist Mike Burney, who is suffering from cancer for the second time. I think it would be a good choice to put him on the deathlist next year, im 100 percent sure he would get an orbit . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks MPFC, I played their version "Where have all the flowers gone" and "Heads down, No Nonsense, Mindless Boogie" on a couple of radio shows that I guested on a couple of years ago here in Minneapolis.

Aye It's "Heads Down No Nonesense..." for me in a triple shot with the Bonzo's "Jazz: Delicious Hot, Disgusting Cold" and the utterly under-rated "Sick Man Blues" by The Goodies. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted August 14, 2013 Drake Levin, lead guitarist of the improbably-attired Paul Revere & the Raiders, has died of cancer at 62. Now Paul Revere, the eponymous hero and organist of the group, is in a bad way. Former Raider Mark Lindsay has posted this on Facebook: It now seems, unfortunately, that my old partner Paul Revere – with whom I used to share outrageous wild dreams of being a successful rock & roll band – is now fighting a tremendous heath [sic] battle. Please keep Paul and his wife Syd in your thoughts and prayers, as it's a most difficult time for both of them and the whole Raider family. ~ Mark , anyone? It went all the way to number 1 in the US in 1970. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
