    Viv Prince, wildman drummer of the 60s has died aged 84. The Pretty Things were at their peak in the 60s and notorious for their behaviour. I saw them in 1972 at the Sundown Mile End Road as the support act for Hawkwind and it was a case of the support blowing the lead band out of sight, they were brilliant and had the place shaking. That was long after Viv had been sacked by the band but showed what a force they were before. Viv's story of the brief years he was drumming was the inspiration for many of the rock nutters that followed, it'll be interesting to see if Jack White can bring his story to fruition. RIP Viv...

    Farewell Spaceman.

    You could say another one gone too soon but Ace lived life to the full and it is amazing he survived this long. He rock and rolled all night and partied every day.

    Failing like domino’s lately….. All the great muso’s & actors etc of our time. Unfortunately, time waits for no one. So many in the 75-85 age bracket.

    It's almost like people are more likely to die when they get old.
