We are very sad to report that composer and long-time collaborator with Pink Floyd and Roger Waters, Michael Kamen, sadly passed away in a hospital close to his London home yesterday (November 18th), after suffering from a "cardiac event", with the doctors unable to revive him.
Michael was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1996 but didn't reveal this to the public until recently (see earlier news). He is survived by his wife, two daughters, his father, and three brothers. A full obituary can be found in our obituaries section.

The new (December 2003) issue of well-respected UK music magazine Mojo, includes a great shot of Syd (and Richard Wright) live on stage at the UFO club in London. Taking up half a page, and in full colour, the picture is used to help illustrate a feature about the "metamorphosis of psychedelia into progressive rock". The feature concentrates on how events in 1969 changed the face of music, and how Pink Floyd were at the forefront of the transition. Other articles include a look at Dylan and The Beatles in the same year, 1969.
