    Was the original singer of Wonderful Life - Black. Very sad news.

    Blimey - another one gone.

    Comedy is one of my all time favourite albums.

    Never understood why he didn't make it so much bigger than he did.

    Sad news indeed.

    Made two very poignant songs about his divorce, 'Wonderful Life' and 'The Sweetest Smile' both of which struck a chord with me.
    RIP.

    Terrible news, still he has left a great legacy in the form of some great music.
