Really sad news, he had one of the best voices in hip hop, and I remember hearing just a friend for the first time years ago as part of a mixtape and hunting it out afterwards to listen to, way back when I only just started to get into rap as well.

Tom O'Connor has died. I do vaguely remember Crosswits, in my head I had him down as the host of Win, Lose or Draw before Bob Mills but that's not in his obituary so I guess I must be imagining that...

I remember watching Name that tune and crosswits in the 80's. Takes me right back.

Ah strawberry float. I didn’t listen to them much, but Badlands is a magnificent track. And the re-done version of Fake Healer with Todd La Torre was great.
