Tbh I thought he was already dead.
Airwolf was farking cool. Shit I loved the 80s. CHIPs, Ateam, Magnum, Knightrider, Airwolf. So good.

I used to love reruns of their show growing up, and the music was catchy. One of their hits 'I'm a Believer' was written by Neil Diamond of all people
“ I’m a bereaver” seems more suitable
And you accuse me of Dad jokes. Anyway, you still got an upvote.

Dick Dale just died aged 81.
Poor bugger had to keep touring in order to pay for various cancer and diabetes treatments apparently.
I think you'll all agree what a wicked player he was, the live version of this in particular is a fucken banger. RIP.
it's a shame he's not more of a household name, he should be, speaking as a miso this track is tough to play well.

Ranking Roger lost his battle with C.
In the spirit of the current political bullshit maybe a remake of this with a title change to 'Stand down Theresa' is in order?

Just heard this. Boyz was a terrific film and even my 13 year old son is a massive fan. Shaft was also damn cool. Still relatively young as well. A genuine cinematic pioneer and someone who deserves all the plaudits.

Yeah, bit of a shock. I also forgot how young he was when he directed Boyz in the Hood.
Apparently the TV show he was running, Snowfall, is pretty good. I keep meaning to watch it and never get round to it so may give it a go now.
