Apparently rumours of the death of John Weider of Family in 2023 have been greatly exaggerated, due to a Wikipedia error.

Mick Ralphs of Mott The Hoople (& Bad Company). Aged 81. My sort of musician. Perfect riffs and considered solos which were perfect for the songs without trying to be be flashy or dazzling in technical frippery. Just a guy who brought so much pleasue to so many people with his talent. |

So sad to hear about Mick Ralphs. I was glad he was aware of the Hall of Fame induction (much like Ray Thomas of the Moodies and Joe Strummer, both of whom passed between the announcement and the ceremony).
The gray cells tell me I saw Mick with Bad Company twice, and so did Mrs. J From A, albeit on different dates:
1 September 1974 at Memorial Stadium, Austin, Texas (Mrs. J From A)
1 July 2009 at the DTE Energy Music Theater, Clarkston, Michigan (J From A)
28 June 2013 at the Venue at the Horseshoe Casino, Hammond, Indiana (picture below)
I have great love for Bad Company and particularly Mick's playing. R.I.P.

Mick Ralphs of Mott The Hoople (& Bad Company). Aged 81. Oh no, i so loved Mott the Hoople, still do. I saw them on their farewell tour must be 10 years ago. All still living then although Buffin was unable to play. They were also my first rock concert, 1971. |

Sad news about Mick Ralph’s, I saw him in 2013 on the last MTH original reunion but he obviously wasn’t a particularly well man then.
Since that tour we’ve lost Buffin, Overend and now Ralpher out of the original line up😔
