The Guardian reported that Steve Ellis, the charismatic frontman of the 1960s pop‑rock band Love Affair, died peacefully on 30 October at the age of 76. The cause was listed as complications from a long‑standing chronic illness, according to the outlet. Ellis rose to fame when Love Affair’s debut single Everlasting Love topped the UK charts in 1968, delivering the distinctive, heartfelt croon that became a hallmark of the era. The group went on to achieve three additional Top 10 hits, cementing their place in British pop history. After the band’s heyday, Ellis pursued a solo career, collaborating with notable artists such as Paul Weller, which added further depth to his musical legacy.
