R.I.P. Anthony “Top” Topham (75) founding guitarist for The Yardbirds. Hope we don’t see any other Yardbirds guitarists pass any time soon. Jeff Beck last week or so and now Topham. https://ultimateclassicrock.com/anthony-top-topham-yardbirds-dead/ R😎 And then, there were two. One doesn't even play anymore and the other has been boring since the 1980s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebk Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Gary Oelze, the founder of The Birchmere, a wonderful venue in Alexandria, VA, died this week. I love going there and eating overpriced food, enjoying some local beer and hearing great performers. We're going to see Lyle Lovett in March. I guess I should buy the book about the place that was released last year. Thanks for the good times and the music, Gary! https://wtop.com/alexandria/2023/01/owner-of-alexandrias-birchmere-gary-oelze-dies-at-80/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toni Iommi is also missing from that list. He is one of the greats too. He came from the same place clapton Beck and Page came from yet he was never included in the convo about the others. He was an original musician and his riffs are legendary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clapton, Beck and Page all hail from what they called The Surrey Delta. Those places are within 2 hours of each other. They all knew each other and Iommi has said so in interviews. Although he was not a blues guitarist in the strictest sense in my mind he belongs right up there with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bong-Man Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) Barrett Strong, Motown trailblazer with 'Money' and more, dies at 81 (freep.com) The great songs are endless. From "Money" to "Cloud Nine", the songs he and Norman Whitfield wrote are timeless. This one was always my favorite....
