That just sucks. Absolutely sucks. I knew he was ill and I was dreading this day.

It's strange how the passing of someone I never met could mean so much.

I spent more than my fair share of time cruising down the highway with one of their albums playing.

The acoustic version of Pouring My Heart Out Again is one of my favorites.

RIP George
 
Argh. When he announced his retirement a couple years ago I was bummed. I did not know he was ill.

This band was soooo much better than their two songs that got American air play.
 
Only 13 year old when he started the band, kept it going until 2021. He retired due to ALS which did him in, aged 77.
 
First time I ever saw 140 MPH was listening to Radar Love in my brother in laws 70 Challenger R/T 440 Sixpack car! RIP George!
