Joe South, who wrote some wonderful songs, such as Games People Play, Walk A Mile In My Shoes and Hush, to mention but a few, has passed away.

His music certainly formed part of the soundtrack to my life in the late 60s

A sad loss of a great songwriter and musician Sad

It's sad in a way that sometimes it's only when somebody dies that you look them up and see the full extent of their work ...to me Joe South was Games People Play...I was surprised to read he composed among other things I Never Promised You A Rose Garden.

RIP
