Do keep these weekly summaries of the departed coming, Dodo, or I shall find myself writing grumpy "Tunbridge Wells" style letters to dead people! The only one I know anything about in the current list is the Buena Vista man and his death seems to signify more of a loss than that of the rest of them!
Faustino Oramis ... ?
Wim Wenders was so clever to catch the Buena Vista Crowd when he did. With so many having died in the short period since the release of the film, their music was brought to the attention of so many people and their legacies ensured. Thank you.
