Gerry Rafferty RIP



Gerry Rafferty, one of Scotland's greatest singer- songwriters, died today aged 63.
Rafferty, whose most famous work was the incredibly haunting 1978 hit Baker Street, died following a long battle with alcoholism.

Gerry was also member of Stealers Wheel, whose huge 1972 hit Stuck in the Middle With You underwent a renaissance after featuring in Quentin Tarantino's film Reservoir Dogs in the 1990s.

Such a shame. Now I have songs in my head. At least its good music.
