Even though the man was fruit loop in my book..some might call him an Avant Garde of the music industry..all a matter of personal taste i guess..still it’s sad to hear of his passing

Gave us the Buzzcocks- no more need be said really :cool:. The music world would have been a far smaller one if it wasn’t for him…

62, 64, I’m not sure but I know he was roughly the same age as me. Scary thought.

Sorry to hear that,

I had the privilige of meeting him on board an aircraft.

Whatever anybody says, he did a lot for the music industry.

BBC says he was 64
