Mark Linkous

Sad news over the weekend.  Mark Linkous, better known as the musician Sparklehorse, died at his own hand.  Mark was a gifted singer/songwriter and producer who created dark and beautiful music.  As a producer he had a gift for bringing out the best in his collaborators as demonstrated on the albums he did with Daniel Johnston and his recent collaboration with Dangermouse (and David Lynch sort of) Dark Night of the Soul.  

I loved his music and he will be missed by MANY.
