I just sang Sunglasses by Tracey Ullman, saw the original was by Sandy Posey, looked her up and it says she died on July 20. If that’s true, it’s somewhat bizarre.

Ditto! I've been analysing her songs for my master's thesis just today!

I see Wiki has been updated to signify the death of Harold Chico Torres, the last surviving original member of doo-wop US band The Crests

 

Nothing in the UK Charts but they did max out in the US Billboard Hot 100 at #2 with 16 Candles in 1958. Again, I cannot find an obit.


Second to last according to this Facebook tribute.

"We mourn the passing of Harold Torres, original member of the Crests, on July 18, 2024. L to R: Patricia Van Dross, Johnny Maestro, Harold Torres, Talmadge Gough, J.t. Carter. With Harold's passing, J.T. Carter is the sole living member of the original Crests' line-up."

Of course my Made In Detroit DDP team wasn’t entered.  That’s two misses this year.

That's a shame, Jack Russells only live about 16 years tops too.

They only cancelled half of the tour, I know that because I'm supposed to see them for the first time in Oslo one month from now. I really hope he recoveres by then.

The other half of the European leg of Queens of the Stone Age tour was cancelled today.
