Yes, he will be missed. We have to appreciate all of our artists, as mortality is a human condition as we keep getting reminded. Somebody did the chewing gum song as "Does the Spearmint Lose its Flavor on the Bedpost Overnight". Lonnie Donnegan exposed a lot of people to some old folk songs and in a way started a movement.
