Malcolm McLaren RIP
 

The man defined a generation and was the force behind the soundtrack of my youth. Can't think what else to say other than I once had the pleasure of meeting him and he was absolutely charming - I literally bumped into him at the Lucien Freud exhibition at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in 1993 and we had a cup of tea and a chat. Unsurprisingly, I paid for the tea!

We certainly are losing a lot of people that really made a difference in our lifetimes.

RIP.

I don't think we'll be missing Simon Cowell as much.

IMHO music isn't nearly as dangerous as it once was. RIP

Re: Malcolm McLaren RIP
 

Ah yes, the soundtrack and attitude of my youth.

"It is better to be a flamboyant failure than any kind of beign success"

I think he was loved and hated in equal measure, depending on your viewpoint, but he was never dull or boring or without an opinion. I visited the shop once in the 70's. Crazy youthful and strangely not that anarchic fun.

RIP and thank you for shoving little England off its axis for a moment

One positive is there will be plenty of Pistols/Bowwowow/Mclaren/Antz/other inspired songs being played on radio today :)

Re: Malcolm McLaren RIP
 

Aint that the truth.:mad:
The big corporations have taken control of the anarchists and hence they are no longer anarchists.
It was only rock and roll but I liked it.;)

Yeah, another of our generation's visionaries and shaker-uppers gone.

"Never mind the Bollix" is always in the car's CD-Multichanger. Fantastic.

RIP, Mr McLaren.......... and give Sid a kick in the nuts for old times when you get through the Pearly Gates.
