One of the more colourful footballing characters of that generation and one of the genuine highlights of the Chelsea revival that preceded the moneybags era.
58 is too young. RIP.

That is the absolute worst possible news. I can't believe it. I saw him in June and he was in fine fettle, looked well and healthy, in fact he looked far healthier than Johnny Depp, who was sharing the stage with him. He was absolutely THE guitarist as far as I was concerned, constantly inventive and always trying something different. This is a bombshell out of a clear blue sky.

Well,that hasn't made my day. He was a musician who never rested on his laurels ,nor ever became a parody of himself. Always creative and always original.

Rest easy,whammy wiggling dude and thanks for everything.

BBC:


Born in 1968, Lisa Marie went on to follow in her father's footsteps and forged a career in music. The star released three albums, with her 2003 debut studio album selling hundreds of thousands of copies and receiving generally positive reviews.

The star was also well known for a series of high-profile marriages to pop legend Michael Jackson, actor Nicholas Cage and musicians Danny Keough and Michael Lockwood.
Even bland can be a type of character :wave:
