RIP John Givens. Such sad news. All who encountered him know that Givo really was a special one. Thoughts with his family and friends.

The sad news of the death of @sacrebleuband's lead singer, Ak Kennedy was confirmed today. Contemporaries of @U2, the band released two singles and looked destined for bigger things – but split in 1980, leaving mountains of potential behind. #AkKennedy hotpress.com/music/former-sa…

Cool long-haired musician Ak Kennedy has gone off grid. His friends are concerned. If you’re in Dublin, or Ireland, please keep a look-out for him. He may look a bit shook. Let’s find Ak, please Here’s a pic from when we met pre-pandemic #AkKennedy

The great Paddy Murray was never at a loss for words but I am today, except to say that it was a total joy working with him on the wireless back in the day. My deepest sympathies to his beloved Connie and Charlotte.
