Barry Ryan dies at age 72

Yusuf/Cat Stevens posted on Instagram today that Barry Ryan passed away yesterday. In April 2017 I spoke to Barry for a rare podcast interview about his greatest hits and rarities. Since then we contacted each other periodically and he was passionate about his new music which deserves a wider release. RIP Barry
