Surprised to be first posting this up, unless I've missed it?

First saw them live at Isle of Wight Festival 1970.

He died on the 4th apparently, but I didn't see it on the Wikipedia list of deaths, which I check every few days.

He wasn't very active in the last few years for heath reasons. He retired from the band in 2002.

I always thought of him as the George Harrison of the Moody Blues; he wrote less songs than the main two, but some of them were just as good.

I'll put one of their abums on in a minute and raise a glass to Tommo.

RIP.
