Nicely said. He was the main reason for me picking up the instrument in the first place. Well, him and Cleo Laine both. That beautiful, rolling, melodic, gleaming épée of a Rickenbacker is going to be irreplaceable in rock music in general never mind prog. Glad I got to see him at the Royal Albert Hall going out on a high, Jon or no Jon. Seeing them next year is going to be tough though.
