A great loss.

(apologies for the odd TOPY spelling)

I was aware s/he was very poorly. As has been said s/he had nasty manipulative moments butter s/he leaves behind so much diverse masterpieces with TG and PTV. And then the bands that came from that (Coil, Current 93, Zos Kia et all).

I first got into PTV early 1988 and found me very busy getting their monthly installments of Live LPs which were happening then (never made it releasing all 23 in thee series butter they did make it into Thee Guinness Book Ov Records for releasing the most amount of albums in one year around that time). I then sought out the earlier albums and was totally immersed in "Dreams Less Sweet" - a truly original otherworldly nothing quite like it album. Would get into TG butter not to thee extent ov PTV, butter retrospectively TG just made what was happening with punk so tame ...

Only saw PTV live once in Glasgow later in 1988 when they were losing their "hyperdelic" style to a more acid house hybrid thing. Pondered on going to thee TG Camber Sands re-union but never made it.

A huge influence on me musically and philosophy. Just so much of a legacy.
