RIP Nelson Frazier Jr

Today would've been the 50th birthday of wrestler Nelson Frazier Jr. who competed under various names such as King Mabel, Viscera, and Big Daddy V in the WWF/WWE. In my opinion, he was one of the most underrated super heavyweights in wrestling history. Sadly, he passed away in 2014 just days after his 43rd birthday.

Yesterday would've been the 65th birthday of former KISS guitarist Mark St. John who was KISS' third lead guitarist and had the shortest tenure from May-December 1984 during which he played on that year's Animalize record. St. John passed away in 2007 at 51 due to a brain hemmorage.

Can't believe I forgot but February 6th marked a sad milestone as it was the 10th Anniversary of the passing of Irish guitarist Gary Moore due to a heart attack at 58. Moore was one of the best guitarist as he specialized in both hard rock and later blues. While he was big in Europe and Asia, he sadly never caught on in North America and many probably don't know him or remember him but it's their loss. Moore was a sad one for me as I've been fortunate to see almost everyone I ever wanted to but he was the one that got away.

With the release of Donkey Kong Country in 1994, the world was introduced to one of the greatest games of all time on one of the greatest consoles of all time. With the game's success, a sequel was a no brainer and that's what we would get in Donkey Kong County 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. Released in November 1995, the game see Diddy Kong as the star and joined by girlfriend Dixie as they venture to Crocodile Isle to rescue Donkey Kong from the first game's antagonist K. Rool.
