Marblehead Posted January 11, 2016 I thought he died a long long time ago. He actually just stopped performing when he found out he had cancer. But after a while he started performing again, probably thinking that he still had to live until he died. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thelerner Posted January 11, 2016 Here's a video from his just released new album. It's pretty out there, experimental but its gotten good reviews. Its the way an artist should go out, with new passionate material. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a verb for a noun, but it makes it sound ethereal. Americans really do the auto erotica thing very well. My little Duce coup doesn't translate to Morris minor countryman. You got big block V8 and we got a Rover. We couldn't even get a sexy name for the sexiest car ever produced the E type. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
