I've just learned of the death,on the 25th October, of Terry Callier, singer, guitatist, songwriter. His Ordinary Joe is particular favourite of mine. I'm also partial to Jazz, My Rhythm and Blues, and the Love Theme from Spartacus. For some reason he was often described as a folksinger; a bit folky maybe, but jazz, blues, soul were all in the mix. He was different. If the vita is brevis, we can be grateful for the ars longa.
