Mike Pinder, original Moody Blues member, 82.
He’s one of the very first guys who put the Mellotron on the map. Unmistakable sound.
RIP

Me too, and I bet it’s at least ok. Those two are honest to goodness movie stars, and they made a sequel. And at least one more movie with DeVito.

I don’t remember much about the story, but Kathleen Turner was gorgeous in those days.

Re: Worthy of mention, too obscure for own thread
watched it a couple of months ago and I thought it held up pretty well. The mudslide scene is one of my earlier in theater moments I remember.

His career was derailed by a blindside crack back block that blew out his knee. Was said to be the best cornerback in the NFL before the injury. Was said to be the reason they made crack back blocks illegal.

Joe Collier, Broncos defensive coordinator from the 70's/80's during the "Orange Crush" era. Highly influential including giving Bill Belichick his first NFL job.
When my parents lived in suburban Denver he lived in the neighborhood and was by their accounts a fantastic guy. RIP.
