Great playlist for a great actor - I would also include "Blue Monday" by New Order, which would seen appropriate enough.
My kids know him as the voice of "Doc Hudson" but for me he'll always be Cool Hand Luke, willing to keep his chin up and spend a "night in the box" if necessary to make his point.
The world lost a good one. But what a lovely playlist by which to close those incredible blue eyes.
How perfect.
