Sam Peckinpahs "The Long Riders" is one of my favorite movies.

The Keach brothers as Jesse and Frank James.
The Carradine Brothers as the Younger Brothers.

I also liked his guest shot as a ghost on Medium a year or so ago.

Was reading some music lists and came across the following bizarre reference to the late Mr Carradine.

According to the author of Mr. Tambourine Man: The Life and Legacy of The Byrds' Gene Clark At Gene Clarks funeral Mr Carradine assaulted the body of Mr Clark, grabbing the body up from the casket while screaming at it before being subdued.

I have no idea why.

One of Carridines five wives was the Former wife of another Byrd, Roger McGuinn. Carradine is mentioned by name in some versions of the McGuinn\Byrd Songs "Tiffany Queen".

From Fox News.com:

Police Lt. Gen. Worapong Chewprecha told reporters that Carradine was found with a rope "tied around his penis and another rope around his neck."

Ouch! His wife also said that he sufferd from depression.

Ummmmmmm...... that's not depression-sounding. That's accidental death sounding. Bangkok. Ropes --- there. Somebody else was in there, I'd bet, things got out of hand and they vanished.

That doesn't make him any less dead, though.
