I've got to be honest, I only know them for (sadly, ironically) 'Pretend We're Dead' and 'This Ain't The Summer of Love', but I do like those songs.

Remember his bike crash on BBCs "Superstars"?
For those not familiar with it, Superstars was a big primetime show in the 70s
Stars from different sports competed together in a number of different sports over the series to find that years Superstar.
Sporting events, including a 100m sprint, an 800m run, a steeplechase, weightlifting, football skills, rowing, tennis, bicycle racing, shooting and swimming
It ran for 16 years
It was very competitive.
Can you imagine a Premiership team allowing their top players take part in a show like that now?
No helmets!
He won the restart.

Parody video of Bonnie Tyler song... Total Eclipse of the Heart.
iirc, in... Music Videos that Shaped the 80s... Bonnie Tyler expressed light-hearted bemusement at the direction of the OG video. All too emo for me. Total respect for her talent and professionalism, though.

That's really sad -- I think she had a future and perhaps a few more movies in that franchise ahead of her.Kaylee Hottle, the deaf actress who played Jia in Godzilla vs. Kong, has died in a car accident at 19.

Hmm... another tenor sax player whose work (at least on the one piece) I was aware of, but not his name. I've got lots of discs of other tenor titans, as they say. Will have to check his out. (I'm a tenor sax player myself.)

A sad loss, I saw the Goodies reunion show. Unfortunately Bill's contribution was pre-recorded.
