harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,689 Posted October 20, 2013 Ronald Shannon Jackson, "the most stately free-jazz drummer in the history of the idiom, a regal and thundering presence", has died aged 73. I imagine that means he hit any drum he felt like as hard as he felt like at any moment he felt like, but I'm buggered if I'm going to listen to confirm. Louis Balfour was undoubtedly a big fan. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,655 Posted December 10, 2013 Caravan drummer Richard Coughlan aged 66 after being in poor health for the past few years. Actually passed the man in the street not so long ago, didn't look well then. The band have a new (fan subscribed) album on the way and promotional gig(s) planned next year. I have a hunch that - despite losing a founder member - they'll go on with those plans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Floating In Space Posted July 26, 2014 Dreadful news. Natty Brooker, former drummer with seminal 80s druggy psychadelic band Spaceman 3 is suffering from terminal cancer. Also an artist, he designed the album sleeve for Spiritualized's Laser Guided Melodies. That's awful, apart from anything else his broadsheet obit chances are hard to call. Natty Brooker passed away in April. No obituaries were forthcoming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
