Just heard that Alan Merrill has died from COVID-19. So, in tribute, I had to listen to him singing his masterpiece:
The Arrows - "I Love Rock 'n' Roll"
If you're used to Joan Jett's cover, it can take a moment to get your head around hearing it sung by a male voice. But once you do get used to it, it's brilliant!
My thoughts are with his family, friends, and fans.

I'm afraid that this is another death notice.
Adam Schlesinger, the bassist of band Fountains Of Wayne, has died from COVID-19.
I have to be honest, I only know one Fountains Of Wayne song. But what a song it is! And since the story is based on an event from Schlesinger's childhood, it makes an appropriate tribute:
Fountains Of Wayne - "Stacy's Mom"
Although I had heard the song lots of times back in the day, today was the first time I had seen the video for it. Suffice to say, it is very suggestive. So, if you are able to go to work / school, my advice is not to watch it there.
My thoughts are with his family, friends, and fans.
