Graham ‘Dids’ Dowdall, longtime music guy in a ton of interesting projects from the UK, both on his own and with others, including Ludus and Gagarin.

Not familiar w the later, but I’m constantly going on about how wildly underrated Ludus is.

Terrible! Sunchyme >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Life in a Northern Town

the Sunchyme video is very much "Something you couldn't make anymore."

Don't think it would even occur to anyone to make something like that now

Loved how it was used in Derry Girls.

Anouk Aimee, 92.

RIP :(

:-(

Now seeing that Chomsky has died

Anouk Aimee, 92.

Had me looking into buying or streaming A Man and a Woman--doesn't look to be easy or cheap.

xp May he sleep furiously

can't be that surprised as he was old and ill, but still such a loss

Actually awaiting confirmation on this, not coming rn

yeah hoping it's a hoax

0-0 at half time. These guys not read the memo.

Sorry wrong thread

His wife says he's alive

Damn, Willie definitely in that category of "didn't know he was still alive" for me. R.I.P. to an utter legend.

What a loss :(

He was still alive??? Wow

:( I was looking forward to seeing him in the stands at Rickwood Field this week for the Field of Dreams game.

Died at 93 just before he was due to be honored there at Rickwood Field in Birmingham, and just before the release of Nelson George's film doc on him.

Arthur "Gaps" Hendrickson, a vocalist alongside Pauline Black in 2-Tone band The Selecter, has died at age 73 from cancer.

Donald Sutherland

With a heavy heart, I tell you that my father, Donald Sutherland, has passed away. I personally think one of the most important actors in the history of film. Never daunted by a role, good, bad or ugly. He loved what he did and did what he loved, and one can never ask for more… pic.twitter.com/3EdJB03KKT

Oh no!

aw :(

Boooooooooo

And without a single Oscar nomination

Ridiculous. At least he got an Emmy (and Citizen X is pretty good).

Never a dull performance. RIP

I think his pre-fame movies of Castle of the Living Dead, Dr Terror's House of Horrors and Die! Die! My Darling! is as good a three-film run as he made.

Aww, bugger. Superb actor.

RIP

Also love the story that he couldn't afford to go to the audition for The Dirty Dozen and Christopher Lee gave him the money because it seemed like a really good opportunity.

the wrong Donald died
