Blue Moon Playlist Review Club - Season 2 - Episode 27 - Out on blue 6 - Gone Too Soon (pg 438)

I've already done an obvious one so I can't do Otis Redding but I will say had he lived there was nothing he couldn't have done and he would definitely have evolved. For my money, along with Holly, the biggest early loss in popular music.

Anyway I'll stick with soul and maybe a lesser known light. Had Shorty Long not died at 28, Motown would as a bare minimum have had another string to it's bow but possibly a whole lot more.

We have to include Stevie and the song that I won't forget listening to near endlessly after his loss in a Wisconsin plane crash in 1990. That was the same week I left the midwest to return to my east coast roots. Mourning with friends and one who was a guitarist who took his loss particularly hard is a time I'll always remember.

One of the first albums I nominated on the album thread was Sunhouse’ ‘Crazy on the Weekend’ The lead singer and songwriter was Gavin Clark a big mate of the film producer Sean Meadows, he appeared on the soundtrack of most of his films.
In particular his bands Clayhill version of The Smiths ‘Please,Please,Please let me Get What I Want’ on the This is England’ soundtrack is heart rendering ,especially given his background and untimely death.

I wondered if you'd nominate him, I've said it before but whenever 'Hard Sun' comes up on autoplay I find it very moving.
