RIP Paul Raven.

Damn, that's sad.

Aye.

I saw the story on the Beeb site, and liking KJ followed it through - I can't believe he was involved in various other bands I really enjoyed.

He was more than a bit talented, that man.

Indeed.

I'm now looking forward to getting my grubby mitts on Rio Dub-Yah even more.

I have foolishly allowed Love Like Blood and its glorious bass line to play. Now I am all nostalgic. And also developing a great craving for going out dancing. Curses.

The first inkling I had of them was one late night (about 15 years ago - god, 15 years!) ITV were showing some summer festival and KJ were belting out tunes from Pandemonium - that hard-core sense of full-on power just hit me. I knew I had to get my hands on that album, and it went from there.

My brother and sister both went through gothy phases in the 80's.

Which is where I got it all from. Night Time has a v special place in my heart, it really does.

My brother picked up on punk with its resurgence in the 90's - that passed on to me and I went off on my own direction, helped by a couple of friends, with whom I shared tastes in music.

My Murder Inc and the first Godflesh album I got were from a friend.

He was a total hero of mine, ever since I saw Murder Inc the first time.

I'm glad I caught him playing with Ministry last time round - he still looked like the-bloke-you'd-least-like-to-wake-up-and-find-you-were-sharing-a-cell-with.

That's such a wonderful description. :-)

He was great, is a sad loss to music.
