Broadway legend Carol Channing has died
https://www.cnn.com/2019/01/15/entertainment/carol-channing-dead/index.html
Not only the star of Hello Dolly in multiple stage productions (Streisand always seemed wrong in the film version) but also played in the stage version of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes as Lorelei Lee (the film produces went with Marilyn Monroe when they adapted to film)
She was nominated for an Oscar for Thoroughly Modern Millie

"Bleecker Bob" Plotnick of Greenwich Village record store fame has died.

Many years ago, I had occasion to meet him professionally in L.A. under less than happy circumstances for him. I never found out what happened to the storage unit full of vinyl inventory he had amassed for a planned but never opened west coast branch.

Country songwriter Sanger "Whitey" Shafer has died.

He wrote 'em for all the major hard core honky tonkers, including both Georges (Jones and Strait), Lefty, Merle, Moe and more. His three divorces doubtless contributed authenticity to his lyrics.
