Sad to hear of the death of soul legend Edwin Starr at the early age of 61 in Nottingham. Another Motown light dimmed. God Bless You Edwin.

Sad news indeed! To think that he should go at this particular time whilst his and our country are involved in the conflict with Iraq. His biggest hit of course was 'War' released during the height of the Vietnamese debacle. Respect due, he will be missed.
