George Michael RIP

I was working last night and couldn't quite believe it when then news broke that George Michael had died.  'Make it Big' by Wham! was the first LP I bought and 'Last Christmas' the first single I purchased for 75 pence.  We were lucky enough to see him on his Symphonica tour four years ago and his voice was better live than on any recording I have heard despite the tracheostomy he had required several months previously.  A brilliant artist and so sad to loose his life at a young age.
