Dickie Peterson, bassist and vocalist for the legendary Blue Cheer, passed away October 12, 2009 at the age of 61.

Here's a tribute video I made for him.

These are some sad news, his music is still to this day immensely influential on psychedelia, hard rock and heavy metal. Worst of all, I never got to see the Cheer live. Unhappy

a beautiful tribute, A.P., his playing reverberates in men like Iommi, Jimmy Page, and Tony Hill

long live your sound, Dickie, and RIP ..you deserve it
