Brian Connelly , Mick Tucker from the Sweet both sadly gone , as has Richard Wright from Pink Floyd . Ray Manzarek gone too . Phil Lynott , Ronnie Dio , Gary Moore , Lemmy , the UFO guys and of course the great Neil Peart , all part of my growing up process , all sadly missed .

Just off the top of my head: Tom Petty, David Bowie, Prince, Glenn Frey and Randy Meisner of the Eagles, Greg Allman, Rick Wright of Pink Floyd, Christine Mcvie and Bob Welch of Fleetwood Mac, John Panozzo of Styx, Gary Rossington and Ed King of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Taylor Hawkins of the Foo Fighters, Kurt Cobain of Nirvana, Scott Weiland of the Stone Temple Pilots, Chris Cornell of Sound Garden and Audio Slave, Chester Bennington of Linkin Park and I'm sure there are a few hundred more, sadly.

Losing Bon, was the toughest for me, ACDC was on fire by 79’ with Highway To Hell released, i was pissed for the next 2 yrs & took a lot to except Brian as the new guy. The energy that band had with original lineup can still be felt to this day… RIP all…

[@TheGoldenAgeofHardRock]

They were right at the edge of the cliff, poised to really take off. It's a testament to how good they were with Bon that most people will list one of those album as their favorite. Once you get past Back in Black, it's rare to name an album after that as you're all time favorite from AC/DC. Rest in Peace, Bon

[@gabooda2380]

I never listened to AcDc after back in black. Saw the real AcDc in Illinois on the highway to hell tour. Bon had so much more depth to his vocals. Brian Johnson was the same mono tone vocals. To this day I only listen to the raw rock AcDc produced with Bon Scott Ride On

Rest Well Rockers.. What stands out to me is all the musicians we lost that played in RIOT..

[@TheGoldenAgeofHardRock]

RIOT has been decimated, same with UFO 🤘

[@michaelscott1658]

Mark Reale formed RIOT in 1975! How many bands were there back then that were playing music anywhere close to what this band was doing at that time? Mark was truly a visionary whose band & music were WAY ahead of the times - the style of hard rock that RIOT recorded on their 1st 2 LPs Rock City released in 1977 & Narita released in 1979 eventually morphed into heavy metal in 1981 with the release of Fire Down Under, the last album to feature Guy Speranza on lead vocals. The type of hard hitting rock music RIOT were recording in the mid to late 70s didn't really begin to achieve widespread popularity until the early 1980s. In the 70s it was nearly a non-existent genre of music that very few bands were playing and there would be a TON of touring dues to pay for the ones that were attempting to gain success pretty much by word of mouth since there were also very few radio stations that would be playing any new releases of this musical style in the 1970s!

[@Yajohnny]

[@o8thman812]

It was with great sorrow hearing last year about the passing of the brilliant singer guitarist Tony TS McPhee. He along with his intrepid GROUNDHOGS recorded some of the finest heavy blues period. I’d say he even created his own genre… “Acid Blues” His songwriting abilities were outstanding, thought provoking & heartfelt. Groundhog albums “Thank Christ for the Bomb” & SPLIT would be highlights in any serious music collection.
