An absolute musical genius.

A life sadly ruined by drugs.

RIP

Yes a great shame. He went the way of Sid Barrett of the Floyd. Wrote and played some great songs nonetheless.

I hate it, my musical past seems to be dying all the time this year and usually younger than me.

Sad news. I saw him after he made a comeback with the Splinter Group in the mid-1990s. His guitar playing was as good as ever, but his voice had gone.

But not throughout his life, was it?

I thought it was some "bad Acid / LSD" that did it back in 69 from which he never really recovered?
