Dave Greenfield : Πέθανε από κοροναϊό ο κιμπορντίστας των Stranglers

Την τελευταία του πνοή άφησε ο κιμπορντίστας των Stranglers, Dave Greenfield στα 71 του χρόνια, χάνοντας τη μάχη με τον κοροναϊό.

Όπως έγινε γνωστό ο κιμπορντίστας του βρετανικού συγκροτήματος «The Stranglers», Dave Greenfield, έφυγε από τη ζωή σε ηλικία 71 ετών, την Κυριακή (3/5) έχοντας νικηθεί από τον κορονοϊό.

Ο μουσικός με καταγωγή από το Μπράιτον της Μεγάλης Βρετανίας ξεκίνησε την επαγγελματική του πορεία στη μουσική από την μπάντα «Rusty Butler», ενώ έγινε γνωστός στο παγκόσμιο κοινό μέσα από το ροκ συγκρότημα «The Stranglers».

Ο Dave Greenfield ήταν ο άνθρωπος πίσω από την ιδέα της μουσικής του «Golden Brown», της πιο εμπορικής επιτυχίας του συγκροτήματος.

The Stranglers were the most underrated of all the bands of the punk era and Dave Greenfield was a massive part of that with his keyboards and songwriting skills. They were an incredible singles band with more than 20 wonderful singles from (Get A) Grip (On Yourself) and Peaches at the beginning straight through to Golden Brown, European Female and Always The Sun. They also made incredible albums and from Rattus Norvegicus through Dreamtime they never got it wrong. At a time when they sang #nomoreheroes Hugh Cornwell, JJ Burnel, Jet Black and Dave Greenfield were all heroes! Rest In Peace Dave and thank you for the music. Condolences to his family, Huge, Jean Jacques, Jet and Alan Edwards. #davegreenfield #hughcornwell #jjburnel #jetblack #thestranglers

REST POWERFULLY DAVE GREENFIELD [MAY 3, 2020] Covid-19 has claimed another legend.  Dave Greenfiled most revered as the keyboard wizard in The Stranglers.  We have shared his lesser heard soundtrack recording from 1983, Fire & Water (Ecoutez Vos Murs) recorded with bandmate J. J. Burnel.  The film never came out, but the music will live forever. A note from J. J. Burnel on Dave's death: “On the evening of Sunday May 3rd my great friend and longstanding colleague of 45 years, the musical genius that was Dave Greenfield, passed away as one of the victims of the Great Pandemic of 2020. All of us in the worldwide Stranglers’ family grieve and send our sincerest condolences to Pam.” – JJ Burnel Rest In Peace DAVE GREENFIELD 🖤🌹 W-ORM #TheStranglers #DaveGreenfield

Very heartbroken to hear of the sudden death of Dave Greenfield, the keyboardist for the Stranglers, one of my favorite punk bands. He contracted Covid-19 While I credit my mum for Elvis, likewise I credit my dad for some great sounds from the 80s. I remember many years ago, he told me he saw the band in France once. Some terrific hits like “Always the Sun”, “No More Heroes” and “Peaches”, even “Golden Brown” my best pick and a fresh one ! RIP Dave. You left a great legacy. #thestranglers #punklives #newwavelives #davegreenfield #goldenbrown

Ο Jean-Jacques Burnel, μέλος των Stranglers, έγραψε στην επίσημη σελίδα των Stranglers στο Instagram για το θάνατο του φίλου του:

«Το απόγευμα της Κυριακής 3 Μαΐου, ο πολύ καλός μου φίλος και χρόνιος συνεργάτης για 45 χρόνια, η μουσική ιδιοφυΐα που άκουγε στο όνομα Dave Greenfield, έφυγε από τη ζωή, όντας ένα από τα θύματα της μεγάλης πανδημίας του 2020.

Όλοι στην παγκόσμια οικογένεια των Stranglers θρηνούμε και στέλνουμε τα ειλικρινή μας συλλυπητήρια στην Pam».
