Tony Slattery - I used to love his improv on Whose Line Is It Anyway?, not to mention HIGNFY and Just A Minute.

Denis Law 

I regularly watched him play alongside George Best and Bobby Charlton at Old Trafford in the 60's and 70's. A truly amazing player.

Roberta Flack - what a voice!

Rather shocking news given the apparent circumstances (still under investigation): Gene Hackman, his wife Betsy Arakawa, and their dog

So sad to hear of his death, a talented jazz musician.

Roy Edward Ayers Jr. was an American vibraphonist, record producer and composer. Ayers began his career as a post-bop jazz artist, releasing several studio albums with Atlantic Records, before his tenure at Polydor Records beginning in the 1970s, during which he helped pioneer jazz-funk. Wikipedia
