I only just heard that John Goodsall, the guitarist, and only original member of the jazz-rock band Brand X, passed away 11 days ago. I saw him live with the band 3 times in the late '70s and early '80s, and he was a talented guitarist, and a bubbly, humourous frontman.

Brand X reformed in 2016, recording three live albums at various dates in the US. I was hoping to see them in the UK last year, but the dates were postponed until 2022 due to CoVID-19.

John also toured and recorded with a wide variety of famous artists as can be seen on his Wikipedia page.

I'm sure we'll all miss the voltage-controlled aluminium bidet.

RIP John

Damn! Brand X was excellent for many reasons, one of them being John Goodsall's cheeky musicality. They were one of very few fusion bands that didn't take themselves too seriously.

Sorry, one should not kid around in such a thread.
