Even John Lennon (the one and only half talented member of that 60s beat combo) liked him.

Sad he had to spend his last years fighting illness. He was a great singer, and will always be remembered for his wonderful songs.

Rest in peace, Errol

Loved his voice.

Rest in Peace Errol.

I'd forgotten how many great records they'd made!

I've been listening to them all

RIP ERROL <3

I rarely get terribly sad when somebody famous dies but this is an exception.

Talented, funny and seemingly honest. His voice was unique.

Not the most obvious of the songs to mention... but this has a special place and seems appropriate...because the music lives on and truly does 'hold you together' in times of need. RIP Errol
