El año
2016 se nos ha revelado como uno de los más trágicos en la historia robándonos
el talento de algunas figuras legendarias.
Bajo esta premisa, un talentoso twittero,
identificado como @christthebarker publico recientemente una imagen en Photoshop, inspirada en la icónica
portada del álbum Sgt Pepper`s Lonely Heart Club Band de los Beatles, que rinde
tributo a las más de cuarenta personalidades, entre deportistas, actores y músicos,
que nos dejaron para siempre este fatídico 2016.
Cabe destacar que el arreglo foral que
identifica el álbum, que en su versión original contiene la palabra “Beatles”,
en esta nueva edición se lee la palabra “Brexit” para destacar la sorpresiva
salida de Inglaterra de la comunidad económica europea.
Esta
desafortunada imagen de Sgt Pepper`s se ha hecho viral en todo el mundo e
incluye los rostros del actor Robert Vaughn y el cantante canadiense Leonard Cohen
que nos dejaron físicamente hace apenas unos días.
Insólitamente la lista aumento esta semana con
la partida física de Leon Russell el pasado fin de semana.
