As a teenager that was into the no particular kind of music except the classical I was being taught, images like this blew my mind.
I regularly watched live after death, wearing more than one vhs copy out as well as the cassette, and poring over the booklet inside the vinyl. This guy, along with Gene and Cliff.
When I finally met him a few years back, I physically shook for days and I almost cried, and was a complete fanboy 😳.
at the time, and still now, he holds almost a mythic status- playing wise- in my eyes.
Im fortunate enough to be playing, writing and recording with one of his ex drummists, so I do have a little more insight into his business dealings, but I will always hold him in high regard musically, and be grateful for this picture’s impact on a spotty teenager 😉🤘
