Thanks to our pal Larry Lee Moniz, we now have updated banners. We thank Larry for his excellent work.
 Franklin, Tenn. — Country music songwriter Tom T. Hall died at his home here Aug. 20. He was 85.
Known to his fans and fellow musicians as “the Storyteller,” Hall was among a small circle of Nashville songwriters, including Kris Kristofferson, Roger Miller and others, who imbued country lyrics with newfound depth and insight in the 1960s and ’70s. MSTies will recall TV’s Frank declaring his admiration for Hall in a host segment in episode 318- STAR FORCE: FUGITIVE ALIEN I. There’s an extensive appreciation here. Thanks to commenter “Brock Lee Rubberband”for the heads up.  LONDON — When Charlie Watts, the legendary drummer for the Rolling Stones, died on Aug. 24 (he was 80) in hospital here, I wasn’t sure there was a MSTory connection. But I was reminded of conversation about drummers in a host segment in episode K18- THE MILLION EYES OF SU-MURU. So all we can do is remove his asterisk and say RIP.
