Grim Deeper 21 Posted January 4, 2018 On 2-1-2018 at 16:44, Thatcher said: Rick Hall, American record producer, songwriter and owner of the FAME Studios, has died aged 85. He wrote songs for George Jones and Brenda Lee, whilst his recording studios were used by artists such as Aretha Franklin, Little Richard, The Rolling Stones, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Gregg Allman. Edit: Daily Mail, The Guardian, The Telegraph obituaries. So he was THE Hall of FAME? 2 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deadsox 894 Posted January 4, 2018 I understand that this is not the proper thread for this post. However, I have never been so moved to express myself and the correct thread has been locked. With all due respect to Bobby Muggs, I must categorically state that Joey Russ, is NOT a racist. I feel so much better getting this off my chest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,437 Posted January 5, 2018 To fulfill the YoungWillz request (I can't do this for everyone, obviously): Harry Landers role in Rear Window is small but vital. He's the date Miss Lonely Hearts brings back to her apartment, only to toss out of the flat when he gets a bit hands on. She then seems to threaten suicide, which is one of the turning points in Jimmy Stewart's character from only thinking about himself into thinking about Grace Kelly and his neighbours. Pivotal. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vinegar Tits 605 Posted January 7, 2018 Of course France Gall will obit. As well as Eurovision, she's one of the most well known French singers there is even if she never did much over here. Chris Tsangarides was a nearby neighbour, living as he did in Kingsdown. So that corner of East Kent loses another celeb - there'll only be Jan Leeming (who lives in Walmer) left at this rate.
