at the time of recording. When the cursed spirit
of Colin Powell was ushered into the club
of 84, the bloodstained velvet rope
would have been unclipped and lifted by none other than the saxophonist
who played the riff on Gerry Rafferty's 1978 hit
Baker Street, Raphael Ravenscroft, who lived a mere 36 years after
the song was released, dying in 2014 at the age of... You guessed it. ..60. Which shows how powerful
the curse of the 84 club can be - reaching back through time to strike
down Ravenscroft 24 years early. A lesson for us all. Goodnight. MUSIC: Baker Street
