Oh shit, Andrew Weatherall 
I feel a little bit sad now. Screamadelica was dead good. Saw them play it live in Brixton a few years ago. Super night it was.
Really sad about this. His own work and his producer-for-hire work from the late 1980s and early 1990s is peerless.

This is fucking tragic. One less musical shaman. Ceremonial robes and headgear going on tonight.

Very sad. I saw Primal Scream when they released Screamadelica, in Manchester, and he was dj’ing also. His work was one of the things that considerably broadened my musical horizons.

His Monthly NTS slot Musics not for Everyone was always a must listen.

Devastated. One of my favourite dance music artists. He could rock a party like very few others. Always one step ahead.

Gutted, I don’t usually join in on these things but gutted. Andy’s contribution to music had depth and breadth.

Sad to report actor John Shrapnel died last Friday. He was a lovely guy and a neigbour. He was married to Deborah Kerr’s daughter. If you are not sure of the name you will know the face. Here he is in Gladiator.
