Had some great times watching the Prodigy back in the day. Were always great live and Keith was a force of nature as frontman. 49 is no age (same as me), real shame. Talk to someone if you're struggling, there's help out there. RIP

Was shocked to see that earlier, it came completely out of the blue. Young age and no health issues as far as I knew. RIP.

Not really a fan of theirs or that kind of music, but I saw them at Reading 10 years ago and they put on a great show and got the crowd going. Great live act.

Dick Dale, the King of the Surf Guitar, who was 81.

Misirlou was used probably most famously for the opening to Pulp Fiction, and remains one of the most iconic riffs in history.

Another guitar legend gone and they're aren't many left. :(

RIP Ranking Roger of the Beat.....Brilliant band who like the Specials, Selector, UB40 championed many mixed race bands despite all the troubles of the late 70's and early 80's.

The Beat were my favourite ska band. Saw them a few years back in Belfast when it was just Roger and his son, they were brilliant live. Sad loss

Loved the ska / reggae era of the early 80's. I saw UB40 live several times but never got to The Beat although I have got their first two albums.
RIP Roger

No I hadn't heard of them until hearing the tragic circumstances on the news this morning. Just read their album received some decent reviews.

RIP

Liverpool's hard man of the 60's/70's

Proper old school footballer

RIP Tommy

Indeed, I don't think he'd last many minutes on the pitch today, before the ref's red card would come out :duno:
