Farewell Bro

Sha June 5, 2007 6

I was a big fan of the Alleycats. Remember this band of duo brothers from Malaysia with their trademark Afro, was a sensation with their hit songs in the 70-80′s.

Well one of the founding member, Loganathan Arumugam has lost his battle to cancer.

He was 54 years old, died at the Mount Miriam Hospital at 10.50am yesterday.

He died to the tune of a collection of early Alleycats songs being played on a portable disc player placed at his bedside.

Family members said Loga, as he was fondly known, died with a smile listening to his music which brought him and the Alleycats worldwide fame.

Farewell bro … Alleycats Boleh!

I was raised on classic rock and ballads, so forgive me if I'm not quite the trance, house music kinda guy. I can't sing, but I can croak, and yes I do take request, only for that special one. My life story is revealed in details with spunky disposition at this personal blog of mine. I'd like to meet honest people who are fun, outgoing, upfront and not stressed! People with clean bathroom, tree huggers will be given higher priority and more attention of course.
