Scott Walker. Well, he is dead now, but I was surprised to read the news today about his passing, because for some reason I thought he had died a couple of years ago. Mandela effect?

You’re thinking of David Bowie

Scott Wilson died last year and I always confused them.

1. Fritz Hollings is still alive.

2. The governor before George Wallace is still alive.

3. On the list of oldest living U.S. governors, Jimmy Carter comes in at No. 10.

Mondale may not be dead, but I'm sure Trump would mock him as "low energy".

Rip Torn now RIP Torn.

Orpheus Knutt (Tom D.), Wednesday, 10 July 2019 07:04 (six years ago)

88 is a very good innings for someone I presume was a bit of a caner.

calzino, Wednesday, 10 July 2019 07:38 (six years ago)

Tommy Docherty's 91 and still going though!

Orpheus Knutt (Tom D.), Wednesday, 10 July 2019 07:53 (six years ago)

my extended television universe is a bit unbalanced now at the idea of Artie not being here anymore :( wrong thread, but RIP Rip.

calzino, Wednesday, 10 July 2019 08:32 (six years ago)

oh god :(

Wes Wood (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 10 July 2019 08:35 (six years ago)

It doesn't belong in this thread anymore but I was surprised to learn about J. Gilberto's passing as I thought he had been long gone since all the people I associated him with had passed away a while ago (S. Getz in the early 90s, Sinatra late 90s, Jobim mid 90s, Moraes early 80s...).

AlXTC from Paris, Wednesday, 10 July 2019 09:03 (six years ago)

Robert Wyatt.

d'ILM for Murder (Hadrian VIII), Wednesday, 10 July 2019 15:08 (six years ago)

Well he is dead now, but he only died in February this year - David Bowie's first manager, Ken Pitt, he was 96.

Arthur Lowe & Love (Tom D.), Friday, 26 July 2019 21:16 (six years ago)

Jane Withers, one of Hollywood's top ten box office stars in 1937 and 1938

Josefa, Thursday, 8 August 2019 02:33 (six years ago)

Tom I thought you were answering my question and my heart went in my throat again.

This thread is a minefield

Euripedes' Trousers (Tom D.), Thursday, 8 August 2019 06:45 (six years ago)

Tolhurst?

StanM, Thursday, 8 August 2019 07:11 (six years ago)

just checked, he's not lolling in the soil yet but some other Lol recently failed to dodge the coffin.

calzino, Thursday, 8 August 2019 07:45 (six years ago)

Creme?

Euripedes' Trousers (Tom D.), Thursday, 8 August 2019 09:11 (six years ago)

no Lol Mason

calzino, Thursday, 8 August 2019 09:20 (six years ago)

So many Lols, so little time.

Euripedes' Trousers (Tom D.), Thursday, 8 August 2019 09:23 (six years ago)

(xp) I set you up there for, "No thanks, I prefer my coffee black". Open goal, man.

Euripedes' Trousers (Tom D.), Thursday, 8 August 2019 09:25 (six years ago)

how absolutely unGodley!

calzino, Thursday, 8 August 2019 09:27 (six years ago)

Is Robert Wyatt stioll with us.
I saw him credited as one interviewee on a Bluer nOte feature in UNcut last month and thought must have been before he died, which I thought was a couple of years ago.
Now can't find anything saying he died. Was I just remembering a 50th anniversary of his recording career, which would be 2014..

Stevolende, Thursday, 8 August 2019 09:57 (six years ago)

he hasn't died

mark s, Thursday, 8 August 2019 10:06 (six years ago)

And never will.

Euripedes' Trousers (Tom D.), Thursday, 8 August 2019 10:09 (six years ago)

yes, he and Alfreda Benge are both 74

Rasputin-like against the attempts of this thread

John Astin, the actor who played Gomez Adams in the 60s.

adam the (abanana), Thursday, 8 August 2019 13:47 (six years ago)

He has now outlived Raul Julia by a quarter of a century, and Ken Weatherwax (Pugsley) by nearly 5 years.

mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Thursday, 8 August 2019 13:50 (six years ago)

Astin was interviewed on Gilbert Gottfried's podcast earlier this year

Josefa, Thursday, 8 August 2019 13:59 (six years ago)

Nehemiah Persoff, who played Little Bonaparte in Some Like It Hot, turned 100 this year.
