Waarom zijn er bij rapmoorden toch altijd van die rare dingen?
Het ging hier om een zinloze straat moord waarbij het hele rap gebeuren niets te maken had. Dit is een van de zoveel moorden die worden gepleegd er in Manhattan.

Dead Can Dance - Garden of the Arcane Delights
1984 - 2009
Diep bedroefd wil ik u mededelen dat Dead Can Dance - Garden of the Arcane Delights (1984) vinyl EP onderweg naar zijn nieuwe eigenaar om het leven is gekomen. Ik hoop van harte dat de vorige eigenaar er veel plezier van heeft gehad. De EP die nauwelijks een krasje had, zal ondanks de onbruikbare staat waarin zij nu verkeert, haar laatste rustplaats krijgen in mijn verzameling.
Geen bloemen a.u.b.

Ik had nog nooit van die rapper gehoord, maar las het vandaag op teletekst. Dus ik ben meteen wat youtube filmpjes van hem gaan zoeken. Het is een waardeloos rapper, maar alsnog geen reden om iemand te vermoorden .
Rust in vrede.

'Manager vermoordde Jimi Hendrix'
Uitgegeven: 1 juni 2009 11:46
LONDEN - Jimi Hendrix is vermoord door zijn manager. Dat zegt althans een van zijn vroegere roadies.
Naar verluidt stikte de gitaarlegende in 1970 op 27-jarige leeftijd in zijn eigen braaksel, maar in The Telegraph vertelt roadie James 'Tappy' Wright een ander verhaal.
Hendrix' manager, Michael Jeffery, zou een jaar later in een dronken bui tegen hem hebben gezegd dat hij de ster had vermoord.
Pillen
Jeffery was bang dat Hendrix met een andere manager in zee zou gaan. Hij stopte de gitarist vol pillen en drank. ''Jimi was dood veel meer waard dan levend. Als hij bij me wegging, zou ik alles kwijt zijn. Ik moest het gewoon doen, begrijp je?'', zou Jeffery tegen de roadie hebben gezegd.
Wright schrijft erover in zijn boek Rock Roadie. De manager kwam twee jaar na de dood van Hendrix om het leven door een vliegtuigongeluk.

Niet de eerste, noch de laatste rapper die zo aan z'n eind zal komen. 'Stoere gangsta'... je ziet wat ervan komt.

Neen, ik weet wel dat er rappers zijn die verstand hebben en muziek maken die ertoe doet. ik ben me ervan bewust dat de hiphop die commerciëel is en op ons wordt afgevuurd (dank u MTV) enkel die brainless muziek is. Het verspreidt een negatieve mentaliteit. Spijtig.

Huey Long, Guitarist for Ink Spots, Dies at 105
Frank Davis and his Louisiana Jazz Band were booked to play at the Rice Hotel in Houston in 1925. The banjo player never showed. For Huey Long, who shined shoes outside the hotel and occasionally got onstage to announce the bands, this was the unmistakable sound of opportunity knocking. Putting down his ukulele, he ran out to a music store, got a banjo on credit and stepped into the breach.
And so began an 80-year career in jazz and popular music. For the rest of the century Mr. Long, who took up the guitar in 1933, performed with an extensive list of greats in a journey that began with Dixieland, moved into swing and jumped forward to bebop. Along the way, he spent nine months in 1945 as a guitarist and singer with the Ink Spots, the enormously popular and influential vocal quartet that paved the way for rhythm and blues and rock 'n' roll.
He died on Wednesday in Houston, the last surviving Ink Spot from the days when the group still had some of its original members. He was 105.
The death was confirmed by his daughter, Anita Long.
On the extended timeline of Mr. Long's career, his tenure with the Ink Spots takes up no more than a couple of inches, but he joined the group in its heyday. In early 1945, while playing with his own trio at the Three Deuces on 52nd Street in Manhattan, he was approached by Bill Kenny, one of the earliest Ink Spots and the group's signature voice. Kenny wanted him to replace their guitarist, Bernie Mackey, who was filling in for Charlie Fuqua, an original member who was doing military service.
In late March Mr. Long, providing guitar accompaniment and vocal support, appeared as an Ink Spot at Detroit's Paradise Theater. He also recorded several songs with the group, including "I'm Gonna Turn Off the Teardrops," "I'll Lose a Friend Tomorrow," "The Sweetest Dream" and "Just for Me."
When Mr. Fuqua reappeared unexpectedly in October, Mr. Long was suddenly an ex-Ink Spot. But his career rolled on.
Mr. Long was born in Sealy, Tex., a farm town about 20 miles west of Houston. His brother Sam played ragtime piano, and Huey picked up the chords on his ukulele. After he finished his adventure with the Louisiana Jazz Band, a visiting aunt took him back to Chicago, intent on getting him some music lessons and starting him out in nightclubs.
In 1933 he switched to guitar to perform with Texas Guinan's Cuban Orchestra at the World's Fair in Chicago. The city was a hotbed of jazz, and Mr. Long, who developed a deft hand at constructing chordal solos, found himself in demand as a studio musician. In 1935 and 1936 he recorded sessions for Decca Records with the pianist Richard M. Jones's Jazz Wizards and the pianist Lil Armstrong and Her Swing Orchestra, including her signature tune, "Just for a Thrill." He went on to perform and do arrangements for the trumpeter Zilner Randolph's W.P.A. Concert and Swing Band.
It was a colorful period. "If you were an entertainer in Chicago, you worked for the gangsters," he told The Journal of Longevity in 2006. "After midnight they would close a club to the public for a party. Generous and friendly, they threw large bills on the stage as some sort of status symbol. When they left, you counted it, and it was always more than enough."
Fletcher Henderson hired Mr. Long to play with his orchestra at the Grand Terrace Cafe and later took him to New York, where the simmering bebop movement propelled Mr. Long into a new phase. He joined the pianist Earl Hines's orchestra and performed with emerging stars like Billy Eckstine, Sarah Vaughan, Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie before forming his own trio and then taking a detour with the Ink Spots.
After playing with the saxophonist Eddie (Lockjaw) Davis's Be-Boppers, he formed a new trio of his own and entertained American troops in Korea and Japan as part of a U.S.O. tour.
Mr. Long briefly attended Los Angeles City College in pursuit of a teaching certificate but grew homesick and returned to New York. The Ink Spots, in the meantime, had broken up, spawning a host of groups using the name, some with no connection to the original group. In the early 1960s Mr. Long formed his own version of the Ink Spots and performed with them in California for two years before returning to New York, where he set up a teaching studio in an apartment in the CBS Building. The studio developed into a small school, which he moved to Broadway and 52nd Street.
In 1996 Mr. Long returned to Houston, where in 2007 his daughter started the Ink Spots Museum across the street from his apartment. In addition to his daughter, Anita Long of Houston, he is survived by two sons, Rene and Shiloh, both of San Jose, Calif.; and seven grandchildren.
At his death Mr. Long was compiling what his daughter described as a musical dictionary, a compilation of the chord melodies he developed over the years. It helped tune out unwelcome developments in popular music.
"Music is defined as sound vibrations that are picked up by the ear," he told The Journal of Longevity, diplomatically. "The music of today has sound and vibrations %u2014 heavy on the rhythm."

Bob Bogle 1934-2009
Robert Lenard Bogle was a founding member of the legendary surf instrumental group The Ventures. He founded the group, along with Don Wilson in 1958. He was the guitarist and later bassist of the group.
Born January 16, 1934 near Wagoner, Oklahoma, Bogle worked as a bricklayer in California from the age of 15. A self-taught guitar player, Bogle met Don Wilson in Seattle in 1958. They worked together on construction sites and formed a band, the Versatones, that evolved into the Ventures. Bogle's lead guitar on the Ventures' 1960 cover of 'Walk, Don't Run' influenced a generation of guitarists including John Fogerty, Steve Miller, Joe Walsh and Stevie Ray Vaughan.
