⚰ Death

I fell off of my push bike the other day, a fox ran out in front of me, I swerved to avoid it, hit the kerb and went flying. I’m glad I was wearing my cycle helmet.

My shoulder is fucked where I went down with my arm extended though…

But was the fox alright?

Meat Loaf has left us.

Michael Lee Aday has finally reached paradise by the dashboard light…

I think 74 is a good innings for him.

Rock and roll lifestyle. Carried weight all his adult life.

Bit gutted about this one regardless. The man seemed to be ubiquitous on British telly when I was a kid.

That’s my favourite song on the soundtrack. I’m something of a mimic singer. Love doing the “unt I did” bit.

Great soundtrack, that.

My personal favourite of his songs in general is one that doesn’t seem to get much airplay, Midnight at the lost and found. I saw him years ago at Bristol, was a bit disappointed that they didn’t perform it.

Great voice in his prime. Saw him a few times.

The man had range.

Bit gutted about this - awesome voice, awesome guy.

It was this kind of thing I used to love about him - how to out do Lee Francis:

I think there was a similar one with Dennis Pennis years ago, but can’t seem to find that one.

Saw him in concert in the car park of the old Hilton Beach hotel a short walk from my old villa in the sandpit.

Just a brilliant performance and such a great sing-a-long.
RIP

The best, full track, is Paradise by the Dashboard Light.

And then there Martha on Welcome to the Neighbourhood and Life is a Lemon and I Want my Money Back.

I saw him at the BIC, great showman…

He did a concert at Brixton Academy in 85 that was filmed for video release. My back view can be seen under the credits at the end of the concert.
