G. Yunupingu, the finest indigenous Australian vocalist of his generation passed away after a long illness. There is an announcement here.

The only one of his records I could find on TIDAL was ‘His life and music’, recorded with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. It is well worth giving this a listen.

Bit sad about this. He was only 46.

Gurrumul was a creative force. A very talented individual.

RIP Gurrumul. I was listening to a CD of his just yesterday. Great singer and musician. Such a shame.

I really enjoyed his performance in Bloodline.

Shame, I wasn’t a massive fan, but really enjoyed some of his offerings.

RIP

I wasn’t either really. More a fan of the Jimmy Webb songs he recorded.
