On April 9 and too young, 68. I did not see any news coverage.

I saw plenty of news coverage, and it made me not want to acknowledge this death. I can appreciate that opinions may differ.

There was an obituary in the Times.

Pretty sure Planet Rock was his biggest hit. But my fav is his collaboration with John Lydon on World Destruction [don’t know how to insert YouTube video]
