Mr Loaf has passed away. I'm struggling to think of any pop/rock star who gave me so much musical & visual pleasure & enjoyment for such a large part of my life. Outrageous. Funny. Fat. Wonderful. BOOH was first released 45 years ago & is still selling to this day. | Click to see full-size image. |

I've seen all the Meat Loaf & Jim Steinman documentaries - 5 or 6 of them - & it always amused me that his close friends & band members called him "Meat". To strangers, he was Mr Loaf I suppose.

For crying out loud, how sad.
Wonderfully memories from the 80's....... many times Meatloaf blaring out whilst driving through the night from Barnstable to Broadstairs to see the lovesick girlfriend for a day or two.

How serendipitous that a man who wrote songs like those should meet a man who could sing them.

Nobody wrote like Jim, nobody sung like Mr Loaf. They were made for each other, although in personal terms they had a very rocky on-off relationships, & often went their own way for years at a time. One died at 73, the other at 74, so maybe they will re-unite Upstairs.
