Cindy Williams was one of the main stars of American Graffiti which launched so many adult careers, like Ron Howard, Richard Dreyfuss and a small part for Harrison Ford.

It feels so wrong to give a like for the announcement of a death. We really do need a dislike option.

Another legend sadly passes. Burt Bacharach this time.

Boy he wrote plenty, and made many a great singing career.

And well deserving of the term “legend”.
HIs teaming with Dionne Warwick was a match made in heaven.
Sublime songwriting, and complex -yet catchy- melodies.
Sad day.

Absolutely not my favourite genre, but I’ve always had a soft spot for DLS, and fully acknowledge their influence. He in particular was great on Gorillaz’ Feelgood Inc too…

RIP…

Wasn’t a huge fan, but I do appreciate that De La Soul are very good.
*not a doctor but seemed to me to be a bastion of old school rap and a welcome alternative to gangsta.
Influential, too.
I’m sure they’re sampled a lot (or their samples are sampled a lot) and you can hear them in Lamar and The Avalanches.
