Default Tony Ogden RIP

I don't know if it's been mentioned on other boards, but I must bring to your attention the death of one of those great lost popstars that never was. Tony Ogden was lead singer for World Of Twist, a band that failed due to being a good five years ahead of their time. 'The Storm' is the only track other than 'Where Are You Baby?' that has always been played at a Planet Boo nite, without fail.
It seems that a mass cull is going on - after the passing of two very close to home last year, the extended Boo family are dropping like flies - Nikki Sudden, Syd Barrett, Grant Mclennan and Arthurly in just the past few months... one can get a little paranoid.
Anyway, if you've never heard them, try to look up 'The Storm' on tinternet or find 'Quality Street' in your local second hand record shop. It seems sad that so few heard such a great talent.
