logansrogueMan. News just came through - happened three minutes ago.
I grew up listening to the man. He is the tenor that every other tenor strives to be as good as. I remember watching a movie with him in it when I was a kid. I was mesmerised by his singing. Nobody has the passion he did, he just soared on every note. I can't even think right now, I'm in shock. :(
His duets with Dame Joan were just -- otherworldly. You listen to those two and you know you're hearing the pinnacle of the human voice. It doesn't get any better than that. That's the sort of thing that gets listened to hundreds of years from now.
I'll miss you, Luciano. The world is much poorer without you.
