Goodnight Sweet Prince


Can't believe the one and only Prince is gone, I'm absolutely heartbroken.
First Bowie, then Merle Haggard and now Prince: 2016 has been a truly rotten year so far. Anyway, here he is looking fabulous and playing I Wanna Be Your Lover live in 1980. Amazing. I will miss him and his eccentric ways and incredible, mind-blowing music so much - we all will. There will never be another Prince, that's for sure.

Goodbye Merle

I never got the chance to see Merle Haggard live but I grew up with his music. He was easily one of the Country Greats, up there with Johnny Cash, George Jone, Willie Nelson and, of course, Buck Owens.  Here he is with Johnny on one of his greatest songs, Sing Me Back Home. R.I.P. sweet Merle and thanks for all the beautiful songs.
