Bad deal.
James Avery of TV’s The Fresh Prince of Bel Air died on New Year’s Eve, CNN has confirmed. The veteran actor was 65.
Avery’s TV son, Alfonso Ribeiro (aka the Fresh Prince’s cousin Carlton), announced the sad news on Twitter this morning:
I'm deeply saddened to say that James Avery has passed away. He was a second father to me. I will miss him greatly. http://t.co/UrW0EeBFbO—

I had him on my list pretty much every year until last year, because he refused to die. Of course now he's about to kick it."My nation is the world, and my religion is to do good." --Thomas Paine

Bye-Bye Love, Phil Everly is dead -

Singer Phil Everly, of the Everly Brothers, dies at 74
Phil Everly, who with his brother Don formed an influential harmony duo that touched the hearts and sparked the imaginations of rock `n' roll singers for decades, including the Beatles and Bob Dylan, died Friday. He was 74.
Everly died of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease at a Burbank hospital, said his son Jason Everly.
Phil and Don Everly helped draw the blueprint of rock `n' roll in the late 1950s and 1960s with a high harmony that captured the yearning and angst of a nation of teenage baby boomers looking for a way to express themselves beyond the simple platitudes of the pop music of the day.
The Beatles, early in their career, once referred to themselves as "the English Everly Brothers." And Bob Dylan once said, "We owe these guys everything. They started it all."
The Everlys' hit records included the then-titillating Wake Up Little Susie and the universally identifiable Bye Bye Love, each featuring their twined voices with lyrics that mirrored the fatalism of country music and a rocking backbeat that more upbeat pop. These sounds and ideas would be warped by their devotees into a new kind of music that would ricochet around the world.
In all, their career spanned five decades, although they performed separately from 1973 to 1983. In their heyday between 1957 and 1962, they had 19 top 40 hits...There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.

I'll try to have the first post updated this evening but it might not be done, this is taking more time than I expected. I've got the unique picks sorted out and everything but totalling up the scores isn't possible until Wezil does his end in the other thread.
