Me and my friends had a blast.<BR/><BR/>I have never been a huge fan, I own only two vinyl albums (On A Storyteller's Night and Goodnight L.A.) but enjoyed their music nevertheless. I think I'll try to get my hands on some of their early albums soon.<BR/><BR/>Take care. Long live rock 'n roll!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07916664844105106094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483199.post-17403548724501876252008-01-02T08:47:00.000-06:002008-01-02T08:47:00.000-06:00I am in shock.I did a search looking for Kex and d...I am in shock.<BR/><BR/>I did a search looking for Kex and discovered his passing so recently.<BR/><BR/>I was a Magnum fan in the very early days around 1974/5 when I went every thursday evening to watch them at "The Railway" pub in Birmingham (UK).<BR/><BR/>Kex has remained my favourite drummer of all time. Not just from his playing which was bloody amazing, but also from how he performed!<BR/><BR/>It is a very sad loss to the music world.BrummieMGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443890718167553356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483199.post-33098709936814328372008-01-02T08:44:00.000-06:002008-01-02T08:44:00.000-06:00I am truly shocked.I used to go to watch Magnum in...I am truly shocked.<BR/><BR/>I used to go to watch Magnum in the days when they played a weekly residency at a pub in Birmingham called "The Railway". <BR/><BR/>Magnum played on thursday evenings.<BR/><BR/>Kex was the most amazing drummer. His personality came through loud and clear and it was as much about watching him play as it was listening.<BR/><BR/>I only found out just now that he died. I dont know why or how, but I guess that is simple curiosity.<BR/><BR/>It is a very sad loss to the music world.BrummieMGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443890718167553356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483199.post-52239040848562727492007-12-31T10:12:00.000-06:002007-12-31T10:12:00.000-06:00Never mind.

Apparently you knew about Kex's death already.<BR/><BR/>It's a shame, but then again, no one lives forever.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07916664844105106094noreply@blogger.com
