James Gandolfini R.I.P.



Today we heard the terribly sad news that James Gandolfini, star of The Sopranos, one of the greatest TV series to come out of America, has passed away very suddenly at just 51 years of age. This evening i'll drink a glass of red in his honour, but for now I salute him with my morning espresso.

I'm in the middle of the 4th Season at the moment. Can't believe he was only 51. It had to be a Bob track didn't it? Perhaps he'll give the song a live airing as a tribute one day. I love Dino's version too though.
