Mike Pinder, the last surviving original Moody Blues member, 82
A sad loss. I regret not seeing the Moodies classic line up live; although they made some good stuff after Mike left, nothing matched up to their "core 7" albums.

Not a surprise he had been ill for several years, but a sad loss.
In the 90's Alias Ron Kavana were just about the most exciting act on the folk club scene. Almost joined the Pogues on more than one occasion apparently.

The '91 Cropredy was just about the perfect one for me. I've seen lots of acts at Cropredy I enjoyed more but it held together really well over the day and half. Really cohesive lineup (which must have cost about 2% of what the current ones do). And that Fairport set was one for the ages.

Musician and producer (although he hated the term), Steve Albini. List of credits too long to mention.

RIP Steve Albini.
Producer of albums by Nirvana, The Pixies, PJ Harvey, Page & Plant, and many more.
Described himself as a "recording engineer" rather than a "producer". Used organic and old-school recording methods wherever possible. Kept a grounded ethic by working on recordings for a set fee rather than royalties as uninterested in the greater machine of the music industry.
An outspoken sonic guru, provocative, always had something interesting to say about the current state of music. The kind of auteur who held opinions you wouldn't necessarily agree with, but would defend his right to hold.
Another interesting and talented character leaves us...going to listen to PJ Harvey's "Rid Of Me" album in his honour.

Sad to hear this. RK was a great songwriter and always good value live. His "Young Ned of the Hill" was always a highlight of Pogues live shows
