Andy Gill, Radical Guitarist With Gang of Four, Dies at 64
"You could tell by listening to Gang of Four music that punk had happened," he once said. "But it definitely wasn't punk music."

"This is so hard for us to write, but our great friend and Supreme Leader has died today," Gang of Four wrote. "Andy's final tour in November was the only way he was ever really going to bow out; with a Stratocaster around his neck, screaming with feedback and deafening the front row."

Punk-Gitarrist Andy Gill ist tot
Anlässlich seines Todes schrieb seine Band Gang of Four über Gill: "Wir werden uns an ihn wegen seiner Freundlichkeit und Grosszügigkeit, seiner furchterregenden Intelligenz, seiner schlechten Witze, seiner verrückten Geschichten und seiner endlosen Tassen Darjeeling-Tee erinnern. Er war zufällig auch ein kleines Genie.''
