Yup sad stuff. Liked a fair bit of his music.

Home is where the hatred is

Great tune..

Shame - I'd only latched on to him after hearing I'm New Here. RIP.

Sad news indeed. RIP

Sad news.....Seen him on a few occasions. Very insightful and humorous. Great poet and jazz artist.

Whitey on the Moon...genius

An incomparable legend. I can't express how much I'll miss him

I've been a massive fan for 25 years, and to be honest thought it was all over about 10 years ago. The the fariy tale return of the last 18 months seemed too good to be true - turns out it was

God bless you Gil - an exceptional man

RIP

Can you believe he wrote that when he was just 19 years old? Awesome talent!

I am the same, have heard of him over the years but bought I'm New Here upon release due to hearing a snippet of it on a TV programme
