Dave Greenfield, aged 71. He'd been in hospital for treatment of a heart related issue and contracted the coronavirus - what rotten timing - sad. R.I.P.

so sad indeed. RIP DG.

never really fitted anywhere but on the fringes and I think that's where they preferred it TBH.

Florian Schneider from Kraftwerk. Although I like electronic music I could never get into the band at all. But they were pioneers of sorts. Just not my thing. RIP.

RIP FS
