In Memoriam September 2019: Stars we lost in Music Industry #InMemoriam



Another month has ended, and wit it, the time to reflect on what happened; and an opportunity to honor those we brought us joy with music, and are now playing their tunes in the great beyond.
Some icons such as Ric Ocasek, Camilo Sesto and Eddie Money left us to mourn them.
Like the Grammy does its in memoriam, we do our monthly Music In Memoriam. I hope you enjoy, and my condolences to their families and loved ones.
