I wonder how many people on here know what a massive contribution he made to music generally and how influential he was. RIP.

He died of Liver failure after years of drug abuse (Heroin) and had a liver transplant so I would imagine 71, although young was pretty good in the circumstances. I would imagine if not so rich he would have died a while back?
He was a Glaswegian |

I'd prefer to remember his contribution rather than dwell on his weaknesses as I think it's more important. We all have our weaknesses.

I would imagine that he could barely recall the 70s and 80s |

I suggest young rock stars are doing the same now as they did then. Young people are not well-known for learning the lessons of those who've gone before them.
