  It's a big list. Prince and Alan Rickman were biggies.

  Gilli Smyth died in August.
  
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilli_Smyth
  
  Co-founder of Gong along with Daevid Allen who we sadly lost last year.
  
  Won't mean a lot to those who didn't know their work, which is probably most!
  
  I've never bumped into another Gong fan in my years on DS.
  
  An example of their work:
  
  The Isle Of Everywhere - from the 'You' album 1974 .

  Was thinking today that there is only one (maybe two) contemporary music icon still with us who is bigger than all those we have said goodbye to this year.

  You got the two I was thinking of but I thought of Bob before Macca. The other two are good calls though.
