Fuck. RIP.

fugazifan 12.06.2009 05:33 PM

fuck. this might be the first musician that i know and follow, kind of that has been taken down in his prime.
RIP
and may you and Fahey jam the night away together

the ikara cult 12.06.2009 08:28 PM

id been reading about him and his work recently, evidently he was someone who had a good following. Im glad of that and im gonna look into his music, best wishes to all his fans

blunderbuss 12.07.2009 10:15 AM

What a shock, I've learned of so much music that I love through that guy. There's not much one can say. RIP.

tesla69 12.07.2009 11:41 AM

this is such sad news, Jack was just coming into his prime, and he was always easy to talk to. if there is any bright side, he didn't suffer, and at least this didn't happen while he was in Europe last month. I missed his show in NYC last month because I was out of town, I wonder if that was his last gig?

stu666 12.07.2009 01:00 PM

i'm shocked to read this very sad news, RIP Jack.

A Thousand Threads 12.07.2009 01:02 PM

Very sad
RIP

what bile, cooz? and fuck your mother. i loved the music and the guy. i wish him well in the afterlife, but i don't believe in "heaven". hades is the best we can hope for, especially for musicians, who can manage a free pass out. he died and it sucks-- but you dont get a heart attack at 38 unless your doing something really wrong, and from references i have he drank like a fish. always sad to see great talent crash like this.

there are some good youtubes. you might not like his devendra-compilated acoustic guitar but he was really a virtuoso. played at arthurfest. i have some files somewhere but my digital shit is in disarray. im sure someone will post links.

gmku 12.07.2009 01:53 PM

it is sad, but it always floors me to hear people say things like, "How can this be? I just saw him on suchandsuch a day." Well, that's because he was alive then. Now he's dead.
