Another artist gone

Sad to hear that Rick Parfitt has passed away :sad1:

That's too bad.

For those who don't recognize the name, he played with the British band "Status Quo". Kinda limited popularity here in the States, but you may recall "Pictures of Matchstick Men"...

I forgot about them not being that big in the US, but 118 million records has to be proof of their success. Btw - Matchstick men ... not what I remember them by. (It's a bit like saying; "Elvis? Yeah, he made that song Heartbreak Hotel")  :laughing7:
Here's some more info if anybody's interested:

Anyway, I hope everbody's having a happy christmas and that we're done seeing more artists we know and like end up dead before the year is over.
