So, farewell then, Lou Reed, Alex Harvey, Alan Hull, Zappa, Beefheart, Jerry Garcia, John Cippolina, Clive John, Micky Jones, Ken Whaley, Phil Ryan, Deke Leonard, Will Youatt, Kevin Ayers, David Bowie, Lemmy ... I just can't keep up. All of you wonderful writers, composers, musicians, singers, guitarists, heroes, icons... you've made me what I am today... your music, your words... have inspired me, motivated me, challenged me, comforted me... it's only rock n roll? No, it's more than that.. whatever it is ... I like it.
