George Melly dies
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6272552.stm
You see that man, his tie is black.
He carries his nuts around in a sack.
Singing, Nuts, Hot Nuts, get 'em from the peanut man.

Re: George Melly dies
Shame, he was one of my favourite Viz characters
Seriously though, RIP George.

Re: George Melly dies
George is one the last true great English eccentrics, a truely talented character, ambassador for his art, performer to the end and all round good-egg.
RIP to a legend.
And if you think you don't like jazz.... visit his website http://www.georgemelly.com/ and listen to the track that plays on the front page...

Re: George Melly dies
I'm not big on Jazz, but George Melly helped spread the word to the uncommitted music fan. R.I.P. George.
