I remember that tune well because it was played to within an inch of its life at the time (if its the one with the RHCP sample that I'm thinking of). Sad news though, sounds like he had a rough time with addiction and 49 is no age. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right, they sampled Pretty Little Ditty by RHCP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underrated musician and a great American character. When living in Austin I hosted a book-signing for his novel Elvis, Jesus, & Coca Cola at the Tower Records, where I was the primary buyer. I treasure my signed copy. When Kinky Friedman calls you a fine American it means something 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Quote Serious concerns over the hospital care of former Arsenal and Everton footballer Kevin Campbell have been flagged up by a health trust, an inquest has heard. Mr Campbell, 54, died at Manchester Royal Infirmary (MRI) on 15 June after being admitted a month earlier. Coroner Zak Golombek said Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, which manages the hospital, had declared a Level 5 patient safety incident - the most serious category - about aspects of his care. He said the provisional cause of death given for Mr Campbell was multi-organ failure due to a heart infection. No family members were present at Manchester Coroner's Court as Mr Golombek outlined background details during Thursday's inquest opening. He said that Mr Campbell had been admitted to MRI on 15 May. "He had been reported to have been fit and well until around January 2024, when he had a number of admissions to hospital before this final admission,” the coroner said. Mr Golombek said the health trust declared a Level 5 incident related to a delay in aspects of Mr Campbell's care and diagnosis, and concerns over decision-making processes about palliative care link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
