I've read the news today and I'm gutted. There was no-one like him or ever will be ...

90 is a good innings. I hope he passed peacefully.

I admit my first thought was no more books. Wrong George Martin.

Had a small panic until I realised this wasn't about the author. Is that bad?

On this forum I doubt if anybody has heard of him, RIP.

Skip of the heart then when I thought it was George R R Martin :eek:

Although given his size, he really should get a move on with his book.

He's played an important part in pop music history, tis rather odd to look back and consider that everyone else turned down the Beatles. Sort of like every other major publisher turning down Harry Potter more recently.

RIP

Decca turned down the Beatles in 1963 as "Guitar groups are going out of fashion" !
