kusee pee Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 What a band and a very influential guitarist. Great bass on many songs too. A real shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyctes Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) And a quote (seen in the BBC news article): "I always think of the guitar as being part of a larger instrument, which is the band," Gill added. "What I always find uninspiring is when guitarists treat the rest of the band as a background over which they show off."

StickyDBRmf Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I saw them for the "Songs of the Free" tour in New Jersey. Just the 4-piece Andy made sounds that would put the Edge to shame Sara Lee was Awesome I didn't stop dancing the entire nite. One of the best shows ever! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrunoBass Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Big fan of Gang of Four. Andy Gill was indeed an innovator; it’s a pity that the guitarists he influenced are often more lauded than he ever was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
