Dave Greenfield - RIP

Post by duke63 »

Keyboard genius of the Stranglers has lost his life to Covid 19.

His most renowned song was Golden Brown.

But i always liked this one. Used by Keith Flloyd as the them tune to his cooking programmes as he and Hugh Cornwell were mates.

Saw them a few times with the original line up, Frankie .

First time JJ Burnell jumped off the stage mid song to sort out soneone who still thought gobbing at the band was acceptable.

I think my first was 79 too. Raven is a great album. I suspect Greenfield was the real musician in the band.
