He had a hell of a voice. I saw him at Manchester Cathedral ten or so years ago, when he was collaborating with Isobel Campbell. He was absolutely mesmerising. The gig ended suddenly when the fire alarm went off, and because of the curfew it didn't resume.

That's unfortunate to hear, 57 is too young. Looking at his discography, he has left a huge body of work. Might try and dig around in it tomorrow.

This is terrible news. Weird thinking acts that long suddenly go.

You were lucky....well, until the fire alarm went off

I've still got the Sweet Oblivion album on a cassette (a what?) I love Dollar Bill so much...they were very much part and parcel of the grunge days and so many have gone now....I'd recommend a listen to the Mad Season album he was involved with too for anyone unfamiliar but interested....his duet Long Gone Day with Layne Staley is amazing

I’m glad someone said it. Some of his announcements looking like the TLORN video.

To be fair it wouldn't be an insult to be compared to zelenskyy - a former actor and stand-up who is now showing real leadership in standing up to that murderous tyrant. Strange days indeed... and by strange i mean bone chillingly terrifying.
