What's with all these guitarists' deaths lately??

Another guitarist left us today.  Bert Weedon, major influence of many UK guitar players including the Beatles has died today at the age of 91.

I remember him well, his 'Play In A Day' book and his numerous TV appearances.

Re: What's with all these guitarists' deaths lately??

that is sad. he was a big reason why i took up the guitar. his party piece was that he played a shed full of notes in so many seconds. any one else remember him on Sunday Night at the London Palladium?

serious? never

whoever invented serious must have a serious brain defect...seriously!
