Re: RIP Thread
Have to disagree, mate. Being a mod, I had the "joy" of reading every one of The Racist Frank Butcher's semi-literate rubbish posts and I'd say 99.99% of them were just crap. He really was a dullard.LDB wrote:Frankbutcher?

Re: RIP Thread
Just listening to an interview on R5L with Seeger's close friend and producer. He laughed when asked about any contact with Bob Dylan. Pete Seeger the only guy in music to call Dylan a phoney and no one argued. No doubt Bruce Springsteen said some very nice things in South Africa about Seeger. His adaptation of the hymn "We Shall Overcome" became the standard of all protest marches in the turbulent '50's/'60's of American society, it still is used today RIP Pete Seeger.QuartzGooner wrote:Wrote some classicsSPUDMASHER wrote:Pete Seeger, American Musician RIP

Re: RIP Thread
He was really good as 'The Count' in The Boat that Rocked.
Bloody shame when drugs get the better of people. Especially given that he had been clean for more than twenty years. Just goes to show that you're never fully recovered from these things!

PSH was a great actor. Seems like all the good ones go on some kind of overdose

I thought Shirley Temple died around 2003, and Sid Caesar died in 1983.
