Sad to report that Meatloaf has died at the age of 74: Singer Meat Loaf dies aged 74Whilst I was never one of his biggest fans there's no doubting that he was a huge star and the "Bat Out Of Hell" album and to this day the full version of the "Bat Out of Hell" track is among my favourites. R.I.P. Meatloaf |

R.I.P Marvin.
Like Sam I wasn't a huge fan but did like Bat Out Of Hell and there is no doubting the significance of the impact his music had.

Very sad to wake up this morning to this news. He brought so much exuberance and joy to the world either through his music or acting
There is no dispute that Bat Out Of Hell is a classic album, and one of the biggest selling albums of all time.
RIP Meat Loaf

Very sad news indeed!!
I don't think he had been in the best of health for some years though so maybe he can now 'rock out' with full pomp and ceremony on that big stage in the sky...
RIP to Meatloaf, a genuine legend of our time.

Sad news. He came to pop from an unusual background of musical theatre and there's no doubt his partnership with Jim Steinman enhanced his success. RIP.

Yes, Bat Out Of Hell deserves the accolades it gets. I liked Meat Loaf, he was a big character whatever he turned his hand too.
RIP Meat Loaf

Sad news, like Sam, I wasn't a massive fan, although I loved You took the words right out of my mouth from 78. He was original and different.
RIP Meatloaf
