"It was my wife who told me the news. It's terrible: 58 is just too early. InPhil [Lynott]'s case it was tragic, and in Gary's case there should have been a lot more years.
"I have great memories of Gary on tour in THIN LIZZY with QUEEN: always smiling, very cheerful and… too young to die. He'd recently joined LIZZY and he fitted in great: a blindingly fast player, and his thing was these staccato runs, with a bit of jazz in there. Totally different to Brian [May], who's a very fluid player, but musicians usually 'get' other rated musicians, andBrian very much enjoyed his playing.
"Over the years, I'd see Gary out in the clubs: a great guy on the scene. He liked to drink, as I remember, but everybody did in those days.
"It's very sad. But I think his music will live on.
Anche il "Madman" Ozzy ricorda il grande Gary con cui collaborò nel disco "After War" cantando nella canzone "Led Clones"
