    Sad news indeed. An under-rated musician and writer.

    Ship of Fools was/is a great song; easily one of my favourites, although the message is rather dark of course. I always thought Dylan could have done a great version.

    Here's a nice acoustic cover by Paul Dempsey, singer/writer with the Melbourne band Something for Kate.
