Oh dear, one of the greatest songwriters of all time, and co-founder of The Beach Boys.

Thank you for Pet Sounds & Surfs Up, plus so many other great songs.

RIP Brian.

First Sly, now Brian, bad couple of days for legends. God Only Knows may be the greatest pop song ever written. RIP Brian

Really sad about Brian Wilson. :cry: I won't have any heroes left soon, which is a sobering thought. At least I got to see him on the Pet Sounds tour at Primavera 2016. Thanks for the music. :heart:

I'm confident Keef Richards will outlive everyone though lol.

Sad News, Mel Charles died today, brother of Big John Charles. he was a fair footballer but lived in the shade of John. He played for Cardiff, Swansea, think he captained Wales. Why United did not sign him I don't know, He played for Arsenal at one time.
