Brian Dennehey was great. He could play good guys and evil guys. He could play evil guys who seemed good and vice-versa. what a talent. Dead at 81
Here's a good interview from a couple years back.

I would never have guessed he was that old! This made me find Patton Oswalt's Brian Dennehy story (for better or worse). There are two comments on the YouTube page, both posted this afternoon. The second one is: "Brian Dennehy didn't die. He's just helping God with his self image problems." (Which probably only makes sense if you listen to the Oswalt clip.) R.I.P.

This is really sad..He worked right up until the end. He has two films in post right now..The parts of Cobb in Silverado and Leo McCarthy in F/X are my favorites..Checkout a small movie from last year called 'Driveways'if you can find it..Shows Brian was still doing solid work

The Loved One is completely bonkers & brilliant - just saw it for the first time a couple of years ago. One of those films where you wonder how it was ever made and where it has been all your life.

"yes, I'm a musician"
Klaus Shulze 8/4/47-4/26/22. if you ever liked electronic music then you are probably sad. used record stores used to be full of his stuff and I thought it was always worth a spin. he seemed to work the "music as backdrop" mines as well as anybody. R.I.P.

Klaus Schulze, the German multi-instrumentalist whose work with drones, pulses and synthesisers was hugely influential on generations of electronic music makers, has died aged 74.
Frank Uhle, managing director of Schulze’s label SVP, wrote: “We lose and will miss a good personal friend – one of the most influential and important composers of electronic music – a man of conviction and an exceptional artist. Our thoughts in this hour are with his wife, sons and family. His always cheerful nature, his innovative spirit and his impressive body of work remain indelibly rooted in our memories.”
Schulze, who briefly played with the groups Tangerine Dream and Ash Ra Tempel before going solo, created work that was pioneering in manifold ways: his epic electronic soundscapes are seen as a foundation of ambient and new age music, while his sense of rhythm, expressed in sequenced electronic phrases, pointed the way to techno, trance and other dance music genres.
RIP my friend.

Big Klaus fan, he was major figure on pre AOR FM underground progressive of the prepunk 70s, concurrent with the Ohr and Virgin era TDream. The long unfolding building surging drones and oscillations always conjure summer time for me. I don't think he ever toured the US, and was pretty anti-US in many of his views. Unlike most of the Krautrockers he was actually successful in his lifetime, particularly on the Continent. Irrlicht, Timewind, X, Moondawn, etc., all excellent Berlin School kosmische, no silly motorik to be found! One of the few artists whose expanded cds and retrospective series (La Vie) actually deliver what a fan would want. Stopped listening after Trancefer, picked back up with the Lisa Gerrard and Namlook collaborations. 74 seems too early to go , thanks for the great atmospheric tunes, RIP.

Shawn's (Maps) anecdote was great:
I met James Caan when he was in Halifax shooting a movie called A Glimpse of Hell. I had a minute role, glorified background really but he still chatted with me between set ups at the craft table. I asked if he had a chance to see much of the city and why an actor with his resume decided to do Wes Anderson's first feature, Bottle Rocket. We talked for a bit then he got called back to set. As he walked away I said, "Thanks Mr. Caan" He turned around, pointed a finger gun at me and said, "Call me Jimmy" R.I.P. Jimmy
