I remember that too. They were a great band and an inspiration to a lot of young guitarists back in the day.

R.I.P. Ronnie!

I remember first hearing Ronnie on They Only Come Out At Night when he was part of the Edgar Winter Group. Another piece of my youth has been chipped away.

Oh, wow, I am just reading this sad news. I guess I'll have to go google it now.
I have heard some of his recent shows. His playing (and band) was great.

I just recently transferred my vinyl of that onto CDR. What a great piece of work, even though there weren't near enough guitar solos by Ronnie.

Bad news indeed..

I'm registered with any number of music sites and hadn't even heard he was ill. Something wrong with the way our music press operates. Priorities all wrong..

So long Ronnie, God speed up to that big old Space Station..

Here's the evergreen "Voyager" to remember him by: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaySUvBV ... re=related

Need to get me a red Cabo Wabo I think.. :(

R.I.P. Ronnie, you were the reason I picked up the guitar. You 'Rocked the Nation', and now you can rock Heaven!
