   It's very sad to hear about this. His bass work was a big influence on my own playing and I loved his work with Japan and Gary Numan. Rest in peace.

	That is a shock, I didn't even know he was ill. A great player, RIP Mick.

	Very sad news - a wonderfully gifted musician, who will be sorely missed. RIP Mick!

	I am a DJ at my local pub... We play classic and prog rock a LOT. I will be playing some Karn on Friday whether they like it or not. I played some Japan last week and a few people got up and danced. I was shocked. This really sucks. He was possibly one of the most unique sounding bass players in music. His sense of adventure on his instrument was unparalleled. I for one will really miss his music. Sad day for everyone!

	This is such a loss. At 52? That's frightening.
