RIP: JOHN DU CANN

1945 - 9/21/2011: Guitar/vocals for Atomic Rooster.
A band I first heard while living in England 1970-1971.
Forgot about them back in the U.S. since they never seemed as big. Hooked back up years later and started listening again. Then, surprisingly I bought a CD fron Five Day Week Straw People, a recent reissue, and found out John had played with them previous to being in Atomic Rooster (who also had Carl Palmer as their drummer before he left to become 1/3 of you know who!
John's partner in Atomic Rooster, Vincent Crane, died in 1989.
So, back together again, rock on John, rock on...
