So, I'm listening to Harry Belafonte sing with the Muppets on the playlist, as posted by Rev. Rye. No particular reason, Rev? Aghhh, just learned that Belafonte died.

I heard this on the radio Saturday, but Johnny Fean of Horslips (and my own parish) died over the weekend.

They're most famous for Dearg Doom, but here's the playlist of another of their albums, The Book of Invasions (obviously based on the Lebor Gabála Érenn):

Urbs Antiqua Fuit Studiisque Asperrima Belli

Been expecting that for a while. Still sucks.

I went to a concert of his a couple of years ago. It was sad to see.  He was so good at one point.

Those who did witnessed a bittersweet moment as an unexpected mourner curled up by the late musician’s side: a dog named Taurus.

According to Lightfoot’s longtime publicist Victoria Lord, Taurus belongs to one of Lightfoot’s tour people, and they bonded while on the road together.

“He used to go on the road with him and wait for Gordon side stage,” Victoria Lord told Newsner. “Gordon loved dogs.”

I must be allergic to that picture - my nose is stuffed up and my eye has gone all watery.
