just hearing this today. one of those “musician’s musician” bands, like kraftwork it now seems inconceivable that music like that was being made in the mid 1970s.

when their album came out we started calling them the U2 that doesn’t suck :grin:

Jacky was pretty well known to all of us in the 80s/90s. she was one of the early bomb gang girls, the backup singers for thrill kill kult. she was always nice to everyone and tons of fun.

I saw Rick once back in the 70s at a local festival, with Blue Oyster Cult and Jay Geils on the ticket. He was great. RIP Rick

Unbelievable!!

I started reading the write up that @Wombat-metal posted and I literally had zero concept of how much of an influenc Rick was. I knew very little and was bummed when I saw this but now I am inspired. Rick was amazing both on and off the stage.

Rest In Peace Brother Rick
