This will get ugly . . . uglier . . . on a daily basis.  Perhaps this thread can serve as a clearinghouse for information about musicians fighting coronavirus.  With a little luck, the vast majority beat it.

Ray Benson (Asleep At The Wheel)

Adam Schlesinger (Fountains of Wayne)

God dammit.  His songwriting was absolutely stellar.  His work on "That Thing You Do" was spot on, and completely transparent.

Fuck.

Shit.  Fuck.  Man, I really loved his songwriting.

I am literally weeping.

I am so god-damned mad.  Full on CR intended.  FT.

In the CR thread I saw that Ellis Marsalis has passed. I don't know if it's due to the virus or not. 

I did not realize that Ellis Marsalis Jr. was still alive, at least until today.  Helluva career and a helluva father.

Just came here to post that -- yes, it was due to complications from COVID-19.  Fuck this fucking virus.

Fountains of Wayne and The Smithereens are pretty much the center of my power pop universe. Both bands are now essentially toast. Fucking depressing.

RIP.

 

 

 

 

I've been reading some of the tributes to Schlesinger this AM. I was a fan of his music but hadn't previously connected all of the dots on his tv and movie productions.

Christopher Cross is stuck between the virus and New York City, and feels the worst that he can be

Well, with John Prine's death, I propose we shut this down.

There's no fucking way we will keep up.
