R I P Kelly Groucutt

Post by ricaddic »

Just heard from a friend of mine that Kelly Groucutt (bass player ELO) passed away from a heart attack, another great talent gone, had the pleasure of seeing ELO, many times during the 70's.

Very sad, I was always a big fan of ELO... R.I.P. Kelly. :(
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Kelly Never played a Ric as far as I can rememeber when I saw ELO in concert. But I did find a Photo of him with a 500/1 Hofner I'm sure Sir Paul had an influence on him.

R.I.P. Kelly :(

I'm a big ELO fan and another guy gone way too early.

Peace.
