KING Crimson singer and bassist Gordon Haskell - who was once narrowly beaten to Christmas number one by Robbie Williams - has died aged 74.

Crooner Gordon Haskell found himself at the heart of a chart showdown in 2001 with his love song How Wonderful You Are. The tune was championed by Radio 2 DJs Johnnie Walker, Colin Martin and Ken Bruce and flew up the charts over the festive period.
