RIP Rick Parfitt

[port perran]

Another rocker gone in 2016.
Never my cup of tea -I saw them one in early 70s and my ears have never been the same.
Nevertheless a sad passing.

I have no idea who he was (genuinely) but it's always sad when someone dies, especially at this time of the year.

Apologies, I missed out that he was guitarist with Status Quo.

[daffy]

Had them rock in' all of the world throughout my life. Sad end to a full life. He was due to release a solo album in 2017 after ceasing touring with Status Quo following a heart attack. His death was a result of a severe infection following a shoulder injury.

Really sad news especially as he was only 68

So sorry to hear this. I saw Quo once in Northampton in the 70s and have always considered them the masters of prehistoric rock.
Sleep well, Rick

Another sad day in 2016.
There is never a good time of year to loose somebody but Christmas will now hold sadness for his wife and children for years to come.

Hope you rest in peace Rick and thanks for the music.

The County ground the Cobblers and the cricket team shared at the time had a function room they put bands on every Saturday night so Quo, Medicine Head, ELO, Barclay James Harvest were just some of the groups I saw there.

My musical tastes are more George Formby, Vera Lynn and Glenn Miiler, which probably explains why Mr Parfitt is unknown to me.
