Sadly Scottish singer Jackie Leven lost his battle with cancer. Your music will live on forever....now I can say his "Love Is Shining Down On Us"
I had connected up with Jackie thru FB about a year ago, talking about music and his new releases and possible tour. Sadly in September Jackie fell ill and was in and out of the hospital.
From his page, where Deborah would update us daily:
The great Scottish singer and song writer Jackie Leven passed away on Monday, 14th November, at 8 o'clock in the evening. He had suffered from cancer.
"There are spiritual story tellers and there are soulful story tellers. I hope to be a soulful story teller. I see the two kinds as two different directions. Spiritual is ascending. Sky, God and all that. I hope my story telling is going down into the earth, is wetter, has more moisture." Jackie Leven
