FORMER IRON MAIDEN DRUMMER CLIVE BURR PASSES AWAY

We are deeply saddened to report that Clive Burr passed away last night. He had suffered poor health for many years after being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and died peacefully in his sleep at home.

Steve Harris said “This is terribly sad news. Clive was a very old friend of all of us. He was a wonderful person and an amazing drummer who made a valuable contribution to Maiden in the early days when we were starting out. This is a sad day for everyone in the band and those around him and our thoughts and condolences are with his partner Mimi and family at this time

Sad news indeed, but at least he passed away at home with his loved ones.

Getting to the point there are a few of these every couple weeks.

:rip: Clive

The birthplace of heavy metal (AKA Birmingham) / L
The drummer (and a fine one at that) in one of my favourite albums of all time, The Number of the Beast by Iron Maiden.

RIP Clive, you were one of the most underrated metal drummers ever :uh:

It does bring about a sudden realisation though that inevitably this will happen, all the musicians I listen to from the 60s to 80s aren't getting younger unfortunately.
