Best known as one of the Sutherland Brothers and Quiver.

With the other sad deaths today the term "the 27 club" takes on a different meaning.

RIP. Peculiar, I only mentioned to my wife a couple of days ago that I really loved "Lying in the arms of Mary".

First artists to record " Sailing", the band were spotted by  Rod Stewart's girlfriend on TOGWT.
Rod recorded the song while sober (unusual at the time), and the rest is history.

Saw The Sutherland Brothers supporting Free at the Royal Albert Hall in 1972 (I think). Second gig I ever went to; I had free tickets in the Royal Box!

Hope he made a lot of money from Sailing.

RIP

(Must be a record day for RIP threads.)

Lying in the Arms of Mary is a brilliant song. R.I.P. What an awful day yesterday was, hope that's it for a while.

RIP - sad news - only bought their boxset last week https://amzn.to/34wYc7C - so been listening to them a lot this week. ‘Slipstream’ is my favourite but they will be remembered for ‘sailing’ and ‘arms of mary’
