The "which famous person died today" thread

Carl Davis, Composer and Conductor.

Worked with McCartney on his Liverpool Oratorio and composed film an TV music.

Probably best known for BBC World Cup 2006 theme based on a piece by Handel




and the brilliant opening titles to The World at War


World at war was one of the most haunting tv themes ever. Still makes the back of my neck prickle fifty years on. Truly gifted musician, RIP sir.
 
Anita Carey, actor who was in a lot of TV shows, such as Thelmas sister in the likely lads, I didn't know you cared and others Then later Coronation Street.

She really was lovely.
 
Just saw that Sixto Rodriguez died a days ago.
Anyone not familiar with his music and life should watch the " Searching for Sugarman" documentary.
It is superb

A fantastic album, first heard Cold Facts when I walked into a customer's premises where they played it, since then bought many cd's of it for family and friends over the years. I think there is a documentary about him.
