It doesn't belong in this thread anymore but I was surprised to learn about J. Gilberto's passing as I thought he had been long gone since all the people I associated him with had passed away a while ago (S. Getz in the early 90s, Sinatra late 90s, Jobim mid 90s, Moraes early 80s...).

Is Robert Wyatt stioll with us.I saw him credited as one interviewee on a Bluer nOte feature in UNcut last month and thought must have been before he died, which I thought was a couple of years ago.Now can't find anything saying he died. Was I just remembering a 50th anniversary of his recording career, which would be 2014..
