Ed King, guitarist in both the Strawberry Alarm Clock and more notably Lynyrd Skynyrd, has died at the age of 76. He left LS over disagreements with Ronnie van Zant, and his replacement Steve Gaines died in LS' infamous plane crash a year or two later. When they reunited in 1987, he was there, but left again in 1996 because of heart problems. He died of cancer.

Also Jill Janus took her own life last week. She was the lead singer with Huntress, and just 43.

Chas Hodges, much loved member of Cockney duo Chas & Dave, has died at the age of 74. He had been battling cancer for a while. Together they had several hits in the late 70s & early 80s like Gertcha and Rabbit, but I think their biggest hit was the following:

Ain't No Pleasin' You

Oscar/Grammy-winning lyricist Norman Gimbel has died at the age of 91. Though he apparently wrote the words to "Killing me Softly with his Song", and "The Girl from Ipanema", I suspect the Happy Days theme is more of a claim to fame.

Ray Sawyer, eye-patch wearer extraordinaire from Dr Hook, died the other day, aged 81. This year will mark 40 years since their big success (in the UK at least) with When You're In Love With A Beautiful Woman. IIRC, Sawyer was often mistaken for being the mythical Dr Hook, by people who should have known better.

Monkees Bassist Peter Tork Dies at 77 -
Peter Tork, the lovable, mop-topped former bassist/guitarist and singer in The Monkees, died on Thursday (Feb. 21) at age 77.

The news was confirmed by Tork's official Facebook page, which paid homage to the actor/singer who made his name as a member of the made-for-TV band that became the American answer to the Beatles in the mid-1960s. A cause of death was not available at press time. Tork's sister, Anne Thorkelson, confirmed the news to the Washington Post, where Tork wrote a blog post in 2009 about his treatment for the rare tongue cancer adenoid cystic carcinoma.
