You forget just how many folk 2016 has taken, just days after Mr Bowie’s sad parting we were grieved by the news of Alan Rickman’s succumbing to cancer, one of the finest actors of his generation he was warmly remembered by Ian McKellen recalling dinner parties he had attended that the Rickmaan’s had hosted as him being ’by turns hilarious and indignant and gossipy and generous…all delivered sotto in that convoluted voice that was as distinctive as Gelgud, Schofield, Guiness and Sim or Bowie’. Album looming on the horizon, the Invaderband pay their respects to Rickman with an IMDB styled rollcall of his finest moments set to an action packed brittle new wave shocked buzzsaw entitled ‘Not Alan Rickman’ which unless our ears do deceive sounds not unlike some Ed Ball inspired fractured genius a la Tv Personalities, the Times et al……. https://soundcloud.com/themessagetapes/invaderband-not-alan-rickman
