ELO founder killed by bale of hay


Police said ELO founding member Mike Edwards died after a bale of hay hit his van

A founding member of rock group Electric Light Orchestra was killed when a giant bale of hay tumbled down a hill and crashed onto his van.

Cellist Mike Edwards died after the 94 stone bale careered down the side of a steep Devonshire field before it smashed through a hedge and onto the road.

The 62-year-old died instantly in the accident on Friday afternoon.

Police are now investigating whether the bale may have fallen from a tractor working on farmland next to the A381 in Halwell, near Totnes. They believe the musician was killed after the loose bale gathered momentum as it rolled down the hill before landing on the front cab of his white van.

Band called Tired Pony, with Gary Lightbody (Snow Patrol) Peter Buck (REM), Scott McCaughey, Iain Archer, Richard Colburn (Belle and Sebastian), Troy Stewart and Garret "Jacknife" Lee amongst its members.

WILD-TURKEY sent me this along with this description:

Below is a link to one of the best pieces of sound engineering work I think I have ever seen. It is a composite audio/video of song whereby additional tracks were laid in by different singers and musicians from different places around the world. The finished product is tremendous!

The song itself is that classic standard "Stand By Me" originally released in 1955 by The Staple Singers and released again in 1961 by the Drifters. This composite version is a real toe tapper.

OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS IT HAS BEEN NICE TO SEE CLASSICAL MUSIC AND OPERA MADE A LITTLE LESS ELITEIST AND MORE WIDELY LISTENED TO BY PEOPLE MORE GENERALLY. PAVAROTTI HAD A LOT TO DO WITH THAT HAPPENING.

G4 WERE OUT OF ONE OF THE U.K'S X-FACTOR SERIES.
