Jim Diamond has passed away

[Saul]

I'm sure some of you knew this great singer from Scotland. I loved listening to his music and was terribly sad to find out he had passed away at such a young age.

I was surprised anyone but me had heard of him.

RIP Jim...

Yeah, he didn't have the popularity he had in the 80s but he had such an impact on my youth that I kept my interest in him and was following him on facebook which was where I read the news. Still have his stuff on Vinyl...
Too sad to be honest. We've lost some great people this year.

I remember the hit singles. He had a nice voice. A friend saw him live & met him a few years ago and reckoned he was a really nice guy, very much into the music.

Hi-ho Silver, RIP.
