Loga of Alleycats passes away

PENANG: Loganathan Arumugam of the Alleycats passed away at 10.50am Monday at the Mount Miriam Hospital here. He was 54.

Loga, as he was fondly called, was admitted to the hospital on Saturday. He was diagnosed with lung cancer eight months ago.

“He had been having a very bad cough for a year,” said his elder brother David, 57, also of Alleycats fame.

Loga was married, with a 23-year-old son and a 20-year-old daughter. He provided vocals and played the flute for the band.

The Alleycats, formed here in 1969, had recorded 29 albums. The group started by playing in clubs around the country before signing a recording deal with PolyGram Records in 1978.
