Roberta Flack. R.I.P.
big response to the news. one of those voices everybody seems to remember.
rough few days for soul
wow, this is actually getting wierd/spooky today.
What a week
Robert is a legend - What A Bummer - And Yes @Wombat-metal , What A Week
A true one of a kind punk rock original is gone. He was the last surviving member of the Dolls.
not a surprise, he’s been really sick for a while now. but a big loss.
I saw that he had stage 4 cancer back in December. I was expecting to see this article but it’s still a bummer. Between Lou Reed, Bowie, the Dolls, and Roxy Music, a lot of musicians that I love coming out of the early 70s are gone.
Aww man, bummer. Fuck cancer.
i always liked them. rip.
not a musician, I could care less. rest in peace sir, and thank you.
…from the article:
Parton met Dean outside the Wishy Washy Laundromat the day she moved to Nashville at 18.
“I was surprised and delighted that while he talked to me, he looked at my face (a rare thing for me),” Parton described the meeting. “He seemed to be genuinely interested in finding out who I was and what I was about.”
By all accounts, particularly Dolly’s, he was a good man. Dolly has always had a remarkable spirit of positivity, but this has to be devastating for her. Peace to them both.
ahh dammit
shit.
Its been a shit week for punk rock.
