LAYNE STALEY´S DAY...

The iconic lead singer of Alice in Chains

Layne Staley would have turned 57 on August 22, 2024. Layne's powerful voice, haunting lyrics and heartfelt singing style created the perfect sound for a genre that defined a new music taste for a generation worldwide. 

As I look back on his life and career, it's clear that Layne Staley was more than just a musician or rock star; he was true to himself, a talented visual artist and for the most part a sweet human being who poured his heart and soul into his work. 

The music of Alice in Chains addressed the challenges many people encountered, and Layne Staley's candidness about his personal struggles, opened a genuine door that deeply connected with the audience.

Aside from Alice In Chains, Layne Staley's talent and passion for music also led him to create his own music project Mad Season, joining forces with Mike McCready of Pearl Jam, Barrett Martin of Screaming Trees, and John Baker Saunders of The Walkabouts. Mad Season was a project that allowed Staley to explore different musical fields to express himself in new ways.

He also incurred into a notable collaboration with Class of ´99 for the soundtrack of the science fiction movie The Faculty. The band was formed by members of prestigious bands cited as follows: Layne Staley of Alice In Chains, Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine, Stephen Perkins of Jane´s Addiction, Martyn Le Noble of Porno for Pyros and Matt Serletic of Collective Soul. The five members contributed to cover Pink Floyd´s Another Brick in the Wall (Part I and Part II).

Through these associations and more, Layne Staley left an enormous mark on the music world, not only with his performances with Alice in Chains but also with his work in other projects that highlight his talent, creativity, songwriting and singing style right to the top.

Despite his untimely passing on April 5th, 2002, Layne Staley's legacy continues to inspire artists and fans around the globe.

Happy Birthday Layne! You're greatly missed.

R.I.P ALAIN DELON

 French Actor Alain Delon passed away at the age of 88.

The world of cinema has lost one of its brightest stars, Alain Delon, who passed away at the age of 88. Delon, a French icon, was often referred to as 'the male Brigitte Bardot' and enjoyed a prolific career that spanned over six decades. 

Alain Delon's journey in the film industry began in the late 1950s, and he quickly rose to prominence with his striking looks and remarkable talent. He became a symbol of the French New Wave, working with esteemed directors like Luchino Visconti and Jean-Pierre Melville. His performances in films such as "Rocco and His Brothers" (1960) and "The Leopard" (1963) cemented his status as a cinematic legend.

Delon's versatility as an actor was evident in his diverse range of roles, from the philosophical hitman in "Le Samouraï" (1967) to his turn as a romantic lead opposite Romy Schneider in "La Piscine" (1969). His ability to portray complex characters with depth and nuance won him critical acclaim and a devoted international following.

Also known for speaking his mind, and leading him sometimes to controversial opinions, he never shied away from expressing his views and sentiments. Aside from controversies, Delon's contributions to cinema were recognized with numerous awards, including a Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 2019.

His legacy will continue to inspire actors and filmmakers for generations to come. The French President Emmanuel Macron paid tribute to Delon, calling him "a French monument" and "more than a star."

Alain Delon's passing is a poignant reminder of the transient nature of life and the enduring power of art. R.I.P Alain Delon.
