The Smiths

[237SJ]

Yet another one gone. People don't seem to live to a good age these days. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-65644596

Yeah, the Big C claims another victim...

[237SJ]

Yes, it's always cancer.

One of my favorite bands... although if asked to name them before today id only have rememberred Morrissey, the drummer Mike Joyce and my fave guitarist jonny Marr.

Their finest hour:

[bobbinwales]

Good one ,,, but I prefer This Charming Man and this one

[douglas9401]

What difference does it make?

[jno]

Tony Bennett's 96, but I don't suppose he lived the rock lifestyle.

[Hopkirk]

He may have been an excellent musician, but I cannot listen to the awful durge that The Smiths produced.

[douglas9401]

My podiatrist was in his early 40s with a young family and had about four weeks between diagnosis and death.

More power to the researchers.

[Khandro]

Monosyllabic, drug-fuelled morons.

[jno]

thanks for the obituary, Khandro; hopefully you'll get a kinder one should anything happen to you.
