For me it was his work with the Jazz Messengers, but even more so for his work with Miles. “In A Silent Way” is one of my favourite albums, let alone jazz albums. “Miles In The Sky” was another great piece of work. A very talented man.Quote:

This might sound a bit crass given she’s died but I have absolutely no time for her ilk. Playing on people’s emotions.Quote:

Dick Fosbury now.
Very few people can genuinely say they changed their sport for ever. He was one such athlete.
I remember a guy at school attempting it for the 1st time at sports practice despite everyone being ordered not to. Smashed the back of his head on the bar, blood everywhere. Teacher made sure he gave him a bollocking first before running to his aid 😁Quote:

It's really sad, always thought he came across as genuine and unaffected by fame. He had two heart attacks, the first was when he was in his 40's. RIP.Quote:

Read both his parents had a heart attack on the same day, only one survived. I can't begin to imagine that sort of circumstance and the effect that shock would have on me.Quote:
