That is very sad.
I hope Morrissey puts aside being an arsehole for a day and responds appropriately.
RIP and thanks for the music.

I am deeply saddened and shocked by this. One of my lifetime heroes - a fabulous bass player - don’t think he ever got the credit he deserved. Still listen to The Smiths as much now as when I was much younger. |

RIP Andy, part of my youth. The Smiths epitomise the 80's for me.
Despite the improvements elsewhere Pancreatic cancer diagnosis still looks like a death sentence

For a long time I was only really familiar with The Smiths' singles.
About 10 years ago I got hold of a copy of the 8CD box set the Complete Smiths and listened to nothing else for weeks.
A truly magnificent body of work.
RIP

Very sad news. His basslines have punched around my head for decades. The playing out on Barbarism Begins At Home is majestic, the rhythm pair come into their own on that.

I've been pleasantly surprised, at the amount of decent coverage the BBC have given to his passing.

Morrissey, Marr and Rourke a juxtaposition of genius. What a terrible period it has been for my lost heroes recently. When they say soundtrack to your life this is what they meant.
