Topic: Ron Ashton RIP

Just a few lines in remembrance of the creator of some of rock's greatest riffs - particularly the descending 3-chord riff that drives I Wanna Be Your Dog. Anyone who saw the Stooges during their recent gigs over the past couple of years will surely remember being blown away by Ron's understated power as he stood, almost with his back to the audience, while Iggy leapt around in true style.
The world has lost another great musician.
