Hell of a shock, was at his concert last night.
Except for looking as if he had back trouble, was in fine form after a dodgy start.

Gene Pitney sang some great songs.....
Something's Gotten Hold of My Heart was a fav of mine. I love the lines below....
Something's gotten hold of my hand
Dragging my soul to a beautiful land
Yeah, something has invaded my night
Painting my sleep with a colour so bright
Changing the grey, and changing the blue
Scarlet for me, and scarlet for you

Very sad news and so sudden. It must have been a real shock to you Colin if you have only just seen him in concert.

Kathy,
My wife, Bronwen, has been a long-time fan and she is upset, running out of tissues fast. :shy:

Bless her. 
If you get the chance, listen closely to Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart for the part where he sings:
"I've got know if this is the real thing,
I've got to know what's making my heart sing"
I'm sure he's singing, "I've got to know what's making my arse sing".
"I've got know if this is the real thing,
I've got to know what's making my heart sing"
I'm sure he's singing, "I've got to know what's making my arse sing".
Happy Jack
On a break
