"I have never been able to reconcile the pleasure many of the records have given me with their early passing. Ultimately I must be just a naïve fool."
Pothos, they would have wanted you to enjoy their body of work long after their passing. What could be better than to have created a timeless classic, such as Rubber Soul, as opposed to something that just sounds dated today?

I cannot get over that Phil passed away 29 years ago. A truly underrated musician.
Thank you Henryj for the kind words.

Me mum and dad went to see Demis at the Philharmonic in Liverpool and would often play his LPs at home, hence why I like the Beatles. The one song that sticks in my mind is the one that went, "Ever and ever, forever and ever you'll beeeee the one", that's the only one I know, although I believe he was on the soundtrack to one of my favourite movies Bladerunner. RIP Demis

Bon Scott (9 July 1946 – 19 February 1980)
A sad loss in Rock. This man lived the life of a Rocker and I guess he would`nt have been all to keen on today`s Rock with meet and greets and corprate seats
