He played with all the greats, including the Duke of Wellington ( Duke Ellington, shurely?? - ed.)

R.I.P. 60s record producer, Shel Talmy.
Produced many of that era's great songs, including Sunny Afternoon by The Kinks,

R.I.P. another muso, prog-rocker Pete Sinfield.
Worked with King Crimson, ELP & Roxy Music amongst others.

[steveqpr881]

I've been Googling Sinfield, and his output was amazingly diverse;
e.g., he wrote the lyrics for Gregg Lake's "I Believe In father Christmas" and Bucks Fizz's "Land of Make Believe."

A break with tradition, as I give you a non-human death:
R.I.P. Typhoo tea, no longer being made.
'You only get an ooh with Typhoo' - that was the slogan.

John Prescott famous Labour Politician RIP.

He wont be needing two Jags now....or even one

[steveqpr881]

I knew you'd beat me to it, Bernard!
Mind you, he might have a Jag or 2 at the funeral.....
Afraid the best I can come up with is Vic Flick, who played the twangy guitar bit on the James Bond theme.
And a point for me, as Shel* Talmy gets his obit in today's Times. ( *= short for Sheldon. Now you know. )

[steveqpr881]

Prezza's obit is in every paper, so a point for Bernard.
I'm afraid all I can offer today is ex-Amen Corner & Bee Gees drummer, Dennis Bryon.
