Hated the guy when he was in his pomp - arrogant, cocky, absolutely infuriating.
From a sporting perspective - absolutely sublime. (Ball in hand)
I knew somebody who managed to blag a ticket at the SCG for SW's final test series (He still can't believe his luck)
The bar was absolutely mobbed but when SW came out for the second innings to make his final batting appearance the place just cleared.
RIP to one of the genuine greats.

Not a cricket fan but genuinely saddened to hear of this. So young as well. 
What a player - no one except Murali could get near his spin and of course he shagged Liz Hurley who is gorgeous
We'll always have The King Of Spain.
Just scrolling through the web as you do and came across one of my favourite acts from the Motown days - R Dean Taylor. Sadly passed away recently (7th January 2022). Hits were "Indiana Wants Me" and "Gotta See Jane". One of the few 'white' acts to record under the Motown label.

There's a ghost in my house was my favourite
Think his stuff was popular in my Northern Soul circles, some decent tunes
Unbelievably, it was a flop in the US. Big success here though.
Northern Soul eh, @wingy? Nice to see another like-minded music lover on here! I have loads. Favourite? Barbara McNair - "You're Gonna Love My Baby" followed closely by Al Wilson - "The Snake"
Oh yeah not an aficionado as such but yeah some real tunes from that genre
Some brilliant video's of punter's working their craft on the floor .
Always a favourite of the time and you could imagine several other big stars singing it from maybe a crossover country angle.
Still none the wiser. Must be getting old. Didn't she sing "Hey, Mickey!"
Pete st John , the guy who wrote the fields of Athenry , The ferrymen and Dublin in the rare auld times . Died yesterday aged 90 . Not a bad body of work left behind

I'd heard of her sister but not her.
She didn't sing Mickey that was Toni someone else!
Was involved in many renditions of that in the Port O Call in 87 after we progressed through each FA cup round!
I had no idea Fields of Athenry was written as recently as 1979, always assumed it had been around for generations
Err...sorry to break it to you mate.... but you're not 19 for ever
Exactly what I thought.
On the upside if it had have been around longer I'd probably been forced to listen to it every Sunday morning along with 'Leaving of Liverpool' and Val Doonican. Scarred for life!
William Hurt…Kiss of the Spider Woman…and many marvel films…does age 71. RIP
