RIP Martin Duffy (Primal Scream, The Charlatans, etc). Got to hang out with him once back in the day. He was a nice guy, chill in the craziness. Way too young.
RIP Thom Bell, architect of "The Sound of Philadelphia. He was the man behind hits by groups such as the Spinners, the O'Jays, the Stylistics to name a few. He moved to Seattle in the late 70s where he produced a great EP by Elton John.
The greatest footy player ever. Took the game to a whole new level & today's players grew up emulating & building on his tricks & skills to make the modern game what it is today. Even the video game platforms programmed in his essence in the moves & whatever they get the virtual players to do.
Prayers up for American football player Damar Hamlin (Buffalo Bills). During last night's game he made a tackle, stood up & immediately fell over backwards. He had gone into cardiac arrest & they worked on him on the field for over 10 minutes. They got his heart started again & he was taken to the hospital where he is sedated & in critical condition. The NFL has postponed the game.

Last I heard he was in critical condition, and now he’s gone. This is such upsetting news. My heart goes out to his family, friends and teammates.
