Very cool but also very weird, his album was very bizarre especially the one titled "Rape", amazed he was not on the police watch list

Not an original member, but was in the 'classic' line up.

Very sad news. A true musical genius. Feels really weird to think The Fall are now over

Mark E Smith from The Fall aged 60.

I saw The Fall in Wakefield a couple years ago. I enjoyed the gig, but my abiding memory was watching Smith trying to remember where he had left his microphone after taking a wander round the stage every now and again.

One of my friends was a huge fan and saw as them often as he could because he knew he wouldn't last that long.

I saw them in Beziers bull ring in the mid-80's.Hugely overated (and a load of people had travelled up from Barcelona-like me-to see the gig) but RIP Mark E Smith.

Singer Paul Young's wife Stacey has died, aged just 52, from brain cancer - I think I'm right in thinking that she was a Southend girl. RIP Stacey.

She was from Southend, lived down Hobleythick lane with her parents who were Smiths the Greengrocers, They had a shop in Hamlet Court Road and another by The Plough..I knew her and her family well in the old days when she was just plain Stacey Smith.

They really weren't any good. TBH,what I remember best is the dry ice and coloured smoke at the beginning of the show.
