Made in Japan!

RIP!

Not a big fan but I get you anyway.

What a bummer saw him when Whitesnake first formed

 

[cgipson1]

ouch! I hadn't seen that.. seems like a lot of the good old rockers are going. My ears were never the same after my first Deep Purple concert....lol! I saw him in Whitesnake also...

 

[Compaq]

RIP

Actually playing Child in Time, and Lazy just before that. Fantastic organ player!

 

[SCraig]

Ah, crap. He could sure make that C-3 sing. He will be missed.

Now I've got "Lazy" from "Machine Head" stuck in my head, and it sounds great!

Machine Head's a classic. I hadn't heard this till now, my head must have been in the sand. Rockers aren't supposed to get old and die like normal people.

 

[Trever1t]

Oh man

Machine Head, my teenage staple. Yes, a sad day indeed.

Yeap, sad news for R&R and music in general. I grew up listening to these guys, as well as my dad did back in the 70s-80s... Goodbye Jon!
