Oh dear. I still enjoy his Debussy & Mussorgsky interpretations, beyond that, I'm not familiar with very much of his work. RIP. |

Blimey, Phil's got most of his albums and we hardy ever play them (all on cassette or 12"ex-library vinyl). Really liked that sort of thing back in the 80s.

Really sad to read just now that Guy Clark the Texas singer songwriter had died.
I've enjoyed his music right back to his first album in the very early 70's.

Another tough one to take. Great songwriter who should be universally known for Desperados Waiting For A Train at the very least. I will give Old No 1 a spin tonight. |

Having just bought the 40th Anniversary Edition of Heartworn Highways and reigniting my interest particularly in Guy Clarks music this is a devastating blow. A great songwriter, I will popping the dvd on tonight. Such sad news. |

Not sure if this has been mentioned already. I think I just read an obituary for Steve Young a week or two ago but it seems he passed away back in March. He was best known for the song 'Seven Bridges Road' which the Eagles covered though I'm more familiar with Dolly Parton's version which she included on her bluegrass album Little Sparrow. Great harmonies on both versions. http://http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/steve-young-dead-died-20160318 |

Sad to hear about both of those guys passing. I have a Steve Young recording of a song...it's actually at the beginning of a Van Dyke Parks album (Song Cycle). I liked what I heard and always meant to check him out properly.
Guy Clark wasn't my personal cup of tea, but I know a few folks who adored that Old No. 1 album.

Guy Clark was inducted into the Austin City Limits hall of fame last fall. We were at the ceremony and he was on the bill, but he wound up hospitalized that afternoon. Very sorry I never got to see him; he was a regular around this town for decades. RIP
