2 great australian leave us

well i can't believe the news that grant mclennan from 'the go-betweens and richard carlton an australian journalist have died!
i dont' remember a time when richard carlton wasn't on australian tv, he kept his integrity as a journalist when others succumbed to tabloid rubbish and probably better pay.
i was totally shocked to hear about grant mclennon, so young to have also passed away; what a great song writer...australian music will indeed suffer with out his continued input, but we have some brilliant songs to remember him by.

OH. maybe i am romantising my memories of him on telly as a journalist reporting from war ravaged countries on 60 minutes. his early years were obviously his more memorable, but then i haven't lived in australia for more than 1 year in the past 8. claire.
