Glen Campbell ist gestorben. Wohl einer der besten Gitarristen und Sänger im Country und radiofreundlichem Country-Pop undRock. Dabei ging sein Einfluss weit darüber hinaus. Es gibt unzähligen Aufnahmen die Ihr gehört habt und Glen Campbell spielt. Egal ob für die Beach Boys, Frank Sinatra oder Elvis Presley. Wer alte US TV-Shows guckt kennt ihn als Moderatorer bei der "Smothers Brothers" Show.
Insgesamt wurden über 45 Millionen Platten verkauft.

Er ist nicht schnell gegangen, er hatte lange mit Alzheimer zu kämpfen -.-

Ich empfehle die Doku "Glen Campbell: I'll be me"
An Alben als Einstieg "Meet Glen Campbell" auf der er für Europa einige Hits von Green Day und den Foo Fighters seine eigenen Stempel aufdrückt.

Einer seiner engsten Freunde, Alice Cooper im Interview:

Der war immer klasse.
Egal ob in Alien oder Klamauk wie Mission: Rohr Frei!
In Seven Psychos ist er ja auch dabei...
Uriges, markantes Gesicht und wirklich was dahinter.

Musikalisch auch nicht zu unterschätzen.
Sucht mal die HDS-Band (Harry-Dean-Stanton-Band)

eines msiner lieblings Lieder ist eine live Version von learning to fly in der die crowd anfängt zu singen.... im vergleich zu den heutigen scheiß mainstream (wobei es auch gute bands. gibt) gefällt mir in den letzten jahren immer mehr lieder aus den 60 bis 80er, irgendwie steckt in den werken der "alten generation" noch "Herz".




Edit: Irgemdwie gibt es Hoffnung das er doch noch lebt, ROLLING STONES MAGAZIN schrieb das die Polizei den Tod bestätigt hat, diese wiederum schrieb das sie das nicht kann (aber sich wohl auch nicht damit befasst) , also liegt er vllt "nur" im krankenhaus..... hofffentlich stellt sich das am ende als Falschmeldung heraus, die welt brauch mehr rock legenden :D

Stepto hatte ein Alkoholproblem, was auch die Ursache für seinen frühen Tod war:

As I read through all of the tributes to my brother, several things are clear to me. One is that he was a larger-than-life person who was adored by so many of you. Another is that many of you were just as much “family” to him as his siblings were. For that, we thank you. Thank you for loving him up close and in spite of his flaws. Thank you for standing by him in the hard times. Thank you for the outpouring of affection and support for him and for our family two years ago when we almost lost him, and thank you for the same over the past two weeks. Because you loved him, we love you. Because you were his family, you are ours. And because of that, you deserve to know the truth. Some of you already do.

Two years ago, Jamie was in a coma and nearly lost his life. What you may not know is that the illness that ultimately took his life was directly related to that event two years ago---and both of those episodes (and many others we didn’t know about until now) were caused by his addiction to alcohol. I’m not sure when the addiction started. Perhaps you know better than I do from across the country. What I do know is that it had devastating consequences for his health. He was told several months before the coma in San Francisco that he had developed alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver and that he had to stop drinking---and he did for a while. But a complication of cirrhosis is that the scar tissue in the liver affects blood flow through the liver, reducing filtration capabilities and placing high pressure on the liver’s vein system. This increased pressure extends all the way to the veins in the digestive tract, and these veins can rupture and cause intestinal bleeding. When this happens, toxins from the digestive tract become absorbed through the intestines and into the blood stream. They cannot be effectively filtered out by a cirrhotic liver, and they can ultimately affect the brain and can lead to a condition called “hepatic encephalopathy.” At its best, this condition may lead to anxiety, reduced performance, euphoria, forgetfulness, or other personality change. At its worst, it leads to coma, and that was the case for Jamie in 2015. We learned from his doctors during the coma that he was an alcoholic and had suffered a bleed in his digestive tract that led to his coma. They told him in the presence of the family after he awoke that this was due to his alcohol consumption and that he could never drink again. He had already gone several months without drinking, and he led the family to believe that he was sober even up to October of this year. He had a procedure done during that hospitalization in 2015 during which a shunt was placed in the veins to reduce the pressure. This procedure always comes with a risk of causing a chronic form of hepatic encephalopathy as it affects filtration through the liver---but from our distance in Texas, he seemed to avoid this complication.

At some point, he started drinking again. I don’t know when---and again, perhaps you do. The truth is, despite what he told you, it was never supposed to happen. He didn’t have a genetic liver disease. He had no autoimmune condition. He had a textbook case of alcoholic cirrhosis, and in order to live (most likely with an eventual liver transplant), he could never take another sip of alcohol. When he did drink again against medical advice, he suffered complications from worsening cirrhosis. He had more GI bleeds, and his shunt had to be revised (further increasing his risk of hepatic encephalopathy from toxin build-up that could change his personality, or worse). I’m not sure of the extent to which his decisions about his own health were negatively influenced by his hepatic encephalopathy, but I suspect that they were. We’ve heard from you about job performance, personality changes, and unusual behavior. You knew who he was, and this wasn’t Jamie.

This brings us to October 24th. Another bleed from the digestive tract occurred, and he came to a nearby hospital by ambulance. He didn’t agree to let his medical team notify our family until the evening of the 25th, after he had already undergone a failed attempt to localize the bleeding and was preparing for transfer to UW. He died at UW from hemorrhagic shock on the 26th at 9:55 am Seattle time, after 45 minutes of CPR and extraordinarily heroic efforts. As a physician, I was assigned as his medical decision-maker in the event that he could not speak for himself (he made that decision in 2015). I went from being in the dark about his condition on Wednesday evening to telling his doctor to stop resuscitation efforts just half a day later.

I know it’s hard to read. Believe me, it’s hard to write. But now that you know the truth, I have a few more things to say.

My brother and I shared a love of writing. Some of the best words we have are penned by writers who had the benefit of knowing that death was near. My brother may have had this sense---there was a sharp uptick in his visits and phone calls to loved ones in his final weeks of life---but we do not, to my knowledge, have his final words. So I will write them for him. No, it isn’t a comedy. I will not mask the truth and call it entertainment. At this point, that isn’t what he would want anyway. So many of you have written about how genuine he is. Who was he when the stage lights were off and the laughter faded? Who was the man behind the avatar? We all know who Stepto was---but who was Jamie?

“Be excellent to each other.” Although originally said by Bill in Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure, the line has become associated with my brother among those who knew and loved him, whether in work or in life. You, his friends---his family---have reminded us of this over and over again with your stories about who he was to you. Please remember him that way. Know that his disease of addiction and its complications may have led to traits that caused him to be, at times, far from excellent. That isn’t who he was. Thank you for standing by him even in the worst of times---you were truly excellent to him. Do not blame yourselves for his disease or his death. He wouldn’t want that for you, you don’t deserve it, and it won’t bring him back. But there is something you can do.

In the wake of Jamie’s death, it’s okay to not be okay. It’s not okay to continue as if this never happened. Do you struggle like he did? Get help. Check here (https://health.gov/dietaryguidelines/2015/guidelines/appendix-9/) for upper limits of safe alcohol consumption. If you need help, tell me or anyone else who loved him, and we will surround you with support. Do you have loved ones who you suspect struggle as he did? Say to them what you wish you had said to him. Turn your grief to action and your memories of him into a future with someone who needs your help now. Bring back that #ArmyofSteptos from two years ago and take care of each other. Let your life look different because he lived and because he died. This is how we bring meaning to a tragedy, and my brother lives on as you do.

Love to you all, from his family---from your family. Be excellent to each other.

Trauer um France Gall: Die französische Sängerin ist am Sonntag im Alter von 70 Jahren gestorben.

1965 gewann sie für Luxemburg mit "Poupée de cire, poupée de son" den den Grand Prix Eurovision de la Chanson, 23 Jahre später gelang France Gall nach 15 Jahren Funkstille mit "Ella, elle l'a" auch ein Nummer-eins-Hit in Deutschland.

Jetzt ist die Sängerin tot. Wie ihre Sprecherin Geneviève Salama der französischen Nachrichtenagentur AFP mitteilte, erlag sie am Sonntag im Alter von 70 Jahren in Paris ihrem Krebsleiden. France Gall habe der Krankheit in den vergangenen Jahren "mit Würde" die Stirn geboten.
