My entire childhood is slipping away. :frowning_face:

My older brother and I slept in the same room as kids. He liked to sleep with the radio on. I remember lying there listening to the Ronettes sing, “Be my, be my baby — my one and only baby.”

Man, that sucks. And I assume you meant 1956 instead of 1056. Because if he lives 900+ years, I’d say he had a good life.

Just read of Gary Brooker’s passing. Music will not be the same for me.

Brooker was a co-founder of Procol Harum, of whom needless to say I’m a big fan.

We lost another great actor today. William Hurt has passed at 71. I loved him in so many movies. Children of a Lesser God, Body Heat, Kiss of the Spider Woman, The Big Chill, Altered States, Gorky Park … I could go on and on. RIP William :heart:

I don’t pay much attention to the names of actors and actresses, but William Hurt was in some of my favorite and most memorable movies. Although I have to admit that I often confused him with John Hurt.
