Japanese guitarist Takeshi Terauchi (d. June 18, 2021) of Takeshi Terauchi & The Blue Jeans, the Japanese version of The Ventures, with Sentimental Guitar (涙のギター) off of their '65 エレキ!エレキ!エレキ! album.  :tongue:

 

 

The Ventures '67 cover of Sentimental Guitar.  The Ventures played often to huge crowds in Japan during the 60's.  It's been said that part of their appeal was that they were an instrumental band only, so no English lyrics for the Japanese audiences to fuss with.

This was one of the first songs which I heard in 2022. Someone played it loud enough that I could hear it in my apartment.

I always liked that song when I was young and in the first days of January this year it was constantly playing in my head.

Then I did a little research about it. Very interesting. It was originally a B-Side (for those of you who remember A- and B-Sides). Almost everything was played on the brand new synthesizer which was just invented...

John Lawton (d. June 29, 2021), cringeworthy lead singer with Lucifer's Friend, Uriah Heep and Les Humphries Singers.  Lucifer's Friend with Lucifer's Friend off of the '70 Lucifer's Friend album.  To each their own but I have to gnash my teeth when I hear his vocals. :sick:

What's the old saying, the only good commie is a dead commie?  Okay, bad joke.  Frontman of the Moscow band Zvuki, MuPyotr Mamonov (d. July 15, 2021), on The Source Of Infection off of their self titled '89 LP.  Apparently the infection turned out to be lethal.
