This is just awful news. The thing I keep remembering is a very moving interview with her father on BBC radio a few years ago, where he was saying that he could no longer reach her.

I associate A Whiter Shade.. with pirate radio. Not that I'm old enough to remember pirate radio, but every time I hear the song's opening bars I visualize a boat on the high seas, rocking gently in black and white, broadcasting music to the nation.

I took a little convincing at first, but that may be because of my age.
