    Ah shit, a favourite of mine from my youth.

    I'd rather listen to Sweet Oblivion or Dust by The Screaming Trees than watch the dross that is Charlton currently anyway.

    RIP

  • Great shame. The Whiskey for the Holy Ghost album was my introduction to him in 1994. Certainly lived life hard and dangerously. RIP Mark.
  • Tbf, considering his life, he had a bloody good innings. 

    RIP - Bubblegum is an underappreciated work of genius 
  • I remember seeing him come on at the roundhouse to do a couple of songs with Peter Hook. He left a lasting impression doing great justice to Ian Curtis and the joy division tracks

    Remember a great version of Atmosphere that they did

    His rendition of Dead Souls particularly stood out to me
  • What about this for a one/two - the first two tracks from Whiskey For The Holy Ghost.
