Rest In Peace.

Loganathan Arumugam of the Alleycats has passed away. My condolences goes out to his family on his passing. I dedicate this post to him.

As you can probably tell, I am a great fan of Alleycats. For those not from Malaysia, Alleycats is a local home grown group which was formed way back in 1969 and they've been producing evergreen hits for as long as I can remember. Their popularity has spread to countries such as Singapore, Indonesia, Hong Kong and other SEA countries to name a few. I doubt there would be anyone in Malaysia who has not heard of Alleycats. The band is fronted by its two founding members, David Arumugam and his late brother Loganathan Arumugam. My heart goes out to his family.

Rest in peace, Loga.

  4. thank you so much for caring about my dad and appreciating his music. May the songs live on forever more. There are many more songs that my dad has sung which are just as good as jika kau. Listen to his first few albums... you would be suprised.
