Not many of you who are not Canadian will know who this is but that's ok. He was a great radio personality up here.

Many is the time that he had me laughing so hard at his stories of Dave and Morley that I could barely keep my car on the road.

68 is too young.

RIP.
:'(

Still makes me laugh uncontrollably.  ;D

I listened to The Vinyl Cafe many times over the years. Always enjoyed Stuart. Very sad. RIP.

I'm not fan of the CBC but the stories on Vinyl Cafe were always something I'd listen to when I had the chance.  Definitely made road trips more enjoyable.
