A great shame.The Modern Dance is still one of my favourite albums, took about two years to get into it when it came out, but well worth the effort.

RIP indeed. I believe he spent his final years liven in Brighton. Must have been an obvious character, he was enormous.

One my favourite live albums is still Shape of Things, recorded on a cassette player and sounds like when you listened to gigs outside the venue. Somehow it works, Final Solution is fantastic relentless noise.

Rocket from the Tombs did some awesome stuff which was very influential.

My favourite is this:  youtube.com/watch?v=BoboBaxTh58&
