I’ve just seen some of tributes to him I hope paradise is just how you remember it by the dashboard light - Stephen Fry
Sad day. I think most have at least one track of his on their play list or in their collection. RIP Meatloaf.
Seen him quite a few times in Manchester and Liverpool. Thought him and Patti Russo were a great act.
i would have loved to have seen him in his hayday, i saw him in Glasgow it must have been about 12 years ago and he was well past his best unfortunately
I love my wife, dearly, BUT, what married man hasn't at SOME point thought - "God only knows what I could do right now."
True but he had collapsed on stage a good number of times in the last two decades and had a rare heart condition. Then he didn't get vaccinated so he was an excellent candidate to get a bad case of covid.
A very sad loss. The Bat out of Hell album is one of the few LPs that i can remember where i was when i first heard it. It was 1978 on the Lizard in Cornwall at a bike rally, camping. They had a big marque there and played the whole album, never heard anything like it before. When i got back to Bristol a few days later the first thing i did was to go to Virgin records and buy it. Still got it and it has been played a couple of times in the last few days. Epic. Ps 1976 750cc T140v Bonnie.
