He wouldn’t know. He’s one of those rich cable subscribers and doesn’t know what those of us who have had nothing but OTA TV’s all of our lives.

Robert Clary, last of the ‘Hogan’s Heroes’ stars, dies at 96

Robert Clary, a French-born survivor of Nazi concentration camps during World War II who played a feisty prisoner of war in the improbable 1960s sitcom “Hogan’s Heroes,” has died on November 16, 2022. He was 96.
Clary died Wednesday of natural causes at his home in the Los Angeles area, niece Brenda Hancock said Thursday.

I honestly thought there was a UK-based Low that did shoegazey noise, and a US-based Low that did some more accessible pop songs. 
I featured them on my "California Songs" Mixtape Culture Club" submission.
And I first heard them here on R. Paradise...

Damn.  Here in MN Low are kinda royalty, though they frequently avoided publicity.  There are a couple of NPR interviews that I believe are linked in SFW's post.

Earlier today, someone shared a video that I thought was cool (In the Robert Plant thread). I hadn't heard at that time that Mimi Parker of Low, passed away due to ovarian cancer.

Low's Mimi Parker had a voice that let the light in

Parker's crystalline vocals and spare percussion gave Low's sound a grounding force and a leavening agent all at once. She died Saturday, but her voice is eternal.
