Cormac McCarthy, America's Pulitzer Prize-winning author - has died aged 89.

Brilliant doesn’t even start to describe his work, No country for old men being one such masterpiece.

For me Blood Meridian was his masterpiece, a brutal and blood soaked look at violence, human nature and the old west. A true master of the English language, I used to look words up in the dictionary as I read.

Top player in his day. Saw him play for the great Leeds team and for ManU in the 1979 Cup final v Arsenal

His Dad played for Accy Stanley when they had a team made up with all the players from Scotland.

I have a list of celebrities who died in 2020. There are 55 of them; only the ones I had heard of, out of the many more. It's fascinating how many are film and TV stars, Bond movies' stars and loads of footballers.

If anyone wants me to list them I will, if I can find the time and if the Mods approve.

Surprised nobody has mentioned the passing of Sinead O’Connor. Not really my cup of tea but undoubtedly an influential artist, and very young to die, 56.

Randy Meiser (Eagles, Poco etc) also passed on the 26th July.

I never tire of listening to him sing.
