Carey Lander, keyboard player with Glasgow indiepop troubadours Camera Obscura. From bone cancer. At the age of 33.

I didn't know Carey personally but we have some mutual friends and I know some other people who have worked with her in various capacities. Reading various tributes and memories over the past couple of days has made me desperately sad.

Fucking cancer.

I wonder what his value was for the purpose of insurance.

Sorry.

I've never seen the Mad Max, but I've seen all the others. Incredible work. RIP.

His Empire poster is the one I always think of as definitive, the way Vader subtly frames the whole thing is quite brilliant.

Yeah, I have had that one on my wall for many a year, although I confess I never knew the artist's name.

I knew of his work from a while back. Great loss. He was one of those artists who seemingly invested every single piece he worked on with the same loving care and attention.

Such a shame. Such a horrible, horrible shame.

Always sobering to hear another iconic Movie figure has gone beyond the veil. Gunnar Hansens cult villain will live forever as long as film goers enjoy a slice of bloody evil.

Philthy.
He was the drummer the first time I saw Motorhead in 1987.
