Sad news. What a guitarist, and what a phenomenal songwriter! No one else wrote songs like he did. His music — with the Band and Dylan, and his solo albums — has been been a huge influence on me over the years. Rest In Peace, and thank you.
Robbie Robertson, The Band’s guitarist and primary songwriter, died Wednesday at age 80.

What a life. Thank you Tina Turner.
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Tina Turner. With her music and boundless passion for life, she enchanted fans worldwide and inspired future stars. We say goodbye to a dear friend who leaves us her greatest work; her music. Tina, we will miss you dearly.
