Terrible loss and terrible shock :(

Jon was close to my vintage and he has been part of my life since he first broke into the music scene. While I'm not a great fan of musicals, I really enjoyed Pirates of Penzance with Jon really going to town in his role :)

He will be sadly missed but he gave me some great memories. RIP

Absolutely, terrible news. One of the first artists I took notice of as I was starting to take an interest in Aussie chart music back in 1979......Hot Town was the one that grabbed my attention, & then he starred in the mini-series "Against the Wind" around the same time. Hollywood 7, one of the greatest, most haunting songs ever written.
