It’s hard to think of many modern musicians who’ve influenced as many people as he did, and made such fantastic music. An incredible guitarist. I missed this in February. I saw the Gang of Four live a couple of times. Cracking gigs. Andy Gill certainly had a distinctive style. Fresh Goods. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckn Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 The media are saying “suspected” coronavirus. It wasn’t suspected. He had it. Confirmed by other doctors but because testing isn’t happening in people who aren’t thought saveable then no official test "When in deadly danger, when beset by doubt; run in little circles, wave your arms and shout" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am friendly with a bloke who loves the music of John Prine. Lent me a CD once. He's not the sort to be on the internet, retired and I don't have his phone number. I suspect he won't know about this until the pubs re-open. Under Scrutiny by the Right-On Thought Police Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
