Goodbye Errol Brown

Errol Brown 1948 - 2015

And so another icon from the 70s - 80s, and my teenage years, passed away today. Lead singer Errol Brown of Hot Chocolate died today, aged 71 at his home in the Bahamas, having suffered from liver cancer.

A very sad day, but at least Errol will live on in the wonderful music he and his band created. Cited as being a very genuine, and gentle man, Errol Brown never took his success for granted and was always grateful for the life he had as a result of his music, which came about as a result of a neighbour hearing him singing at home. A world of music lovers is so very glad he did, but so sorry he is gone.
