Another passing... (of natural causes)... and "completely different"

Paul Reubens, actor best known as Pee-wee Herman, dies at 70

Final message from him was an apology for not telling fans he was battling cancer.

1980's - Pee-Wee's Playhouse" was surreal, and had a huge cultural impact (like *Beavis & Butthead? Simpsons?)

A Peter Max / Dali / Psychedelia-Infused Fun romp which spurred imitation, of his maniacal laugh (pre-Tucker/DeSantis), and his equally strange vocal expeditions

1991 - Arrested for "indecent exposure" - in Florida!

Another huge contributor to 20th Century 'pop' music is gone,

Burt Bacharach, Peerless Pop Composer, Dies at 94

A "counterpoint to rock", some say, a with a prolific string of popular radio/record hits - mostly love songs and sweet ballads we could hum, from Dionne Warwick, the Carpenters, Tom Jones, Neil Diamond, Dusty Springfield, and spanning the spectrum, Elvis Costello, the Bangles and so many more. R.I.P.
