Ahh, that’s sad news :(

Not a name most will know, including myself. Monty Norman has passed away aged 92. Composer of one of the most iconic Film themes, James Bond.

I watched something recently that showed that he originally wrote the main tune on sitar for another film which didn't do so well. He transposed it to guitar and the Bond theme was there.
I always thought that John Barry wrote the music but he "just" arranged it.

The Ryder family and Happy Mondays band members are deeply saddened and shocked to say that Paul Ryder passed away this morning

A true pioneer and legend. He will be forever missed ❤️

We thank you for respecting the privacy of all concerned at this time.

Long live his funk x

As you know I have been up Queensland way for the Leeds games meeting up with Sam (Deebo) and DLW.

But me and Sam were also up in Queensland for another sad reason.

Tony Hill (aka OzWhite) sadly passed away earlier this year and we visited one of his sons up Gympie way, what an amazing collection of Leeds memorabilia he collected and collated for his website.

I know some authors on here used his material for their books (myself & Sam included).

RIP Tony/OzWhite :cry:
Owners come and go but Leeds United will be there forever, for the fans - keep Marching on Together.
