^ Yeah, that rings true! When I learned that he was dead, I searched Youtube for my favourite Aznavour song, but it turned out to be by Maurice Chevalier.

It's quite the phenermenern. <---spelling taken from a scene from the original Heavy Metal movie. This is what boredom does to me.

^ Sounds like you need to clear another disc-golf course, Plankton: those photos you posted the other day are wonderful.

You must not have read the update. I'm in urushiol hell. No thank you very much, I'll try and stick to utilizing them rather than creating them in the future, now that I know I'm susceptible. It was a fun experience to get to go in there and see things first hand though.

Actually, he’s very well-known worldwide. It’s just this bag of tricks that we have here.
Probably Tony Bennett will elicit the same amount of “Who?”

This was the guy responsible for the sound of Tomorrow Never Knows. Among many other things.

Beatles' sound engineer Geoff Emerick dies
Quote:
Grammy Award-winning audio engineer Geoff Emerick, who worked on several of the Beatles' most important albums, died on Tuesday from a heart attack. He was 72 years old.

His manager William Zabaleta confirmed the news, saying Emerick fell ill when Zabaleta was on the phone to him.

"Today, at around 2 o'clock, I was making my way back from Arizona to Los Angeles to go pick up Geoff so we could transport some gold records and platinum plaques to our show in Tucson," Zabaleta said in a statement online.

"While on the phone with Geoff Emerick, he had complications, dropped the phone. At that point I called 911, but by the time they got there it was too late," he said. "So Geoff suffered from heart problems for a long time. He had a pacemaker and, you know, when it's your time, it's your time. We lost a legend and a best friend to me and a mentor."
