I've never heard of him, but my regards go out to fellow musicians. Now I am inspired to find these bands' recordings and hear them. You see? Something can come from death. When I hear his music, I am sure I will understand why you mourn him.

RIP. Disapprove

He was the composer of some of the best Canterbury songs.

RIP Cry
 
His work with Hatfield, National Health and Absolute Zero was truly impressive. Great drummer indeed. I'll miss him deeply!

Amyric Leroy:

Dear fellow Rattlers,

I'm too stunned to comment on this yet, but I've just been informed that Pip died last night. Apparently of "natural causes", at the Gare du Nord in Paris, on his way back from Hatfield's gig in Groningen on Saturday.

Hugh Hopper: "Patrice called to say Pip died today at 2.00am in Paris. He played with Hatfield in Amsterdam. Richard says it was a great gig".

What can I say ? I guess nothing right now, except... What a sh*t year it's been !

A.


After Elton Dean and Pierre Moerlen, this is a tragic year for Canterbury
