Keyboards is a kind of outsider in Punk rock bands and its rough music. However, some bands insisted in having this kind of finesse in their music. One of those bands, are the Stranglers. Also I instantly remember of a couple of bands more, the Tubes and the Magazine.
Dave Greenfield is best known by his too very much known song Golden Brown. But since the start of these grandfathers of punk, the Stranglers, Greenfield left his signature, many times compared to Ray Manzarek of the Doors. The stranglers started in 1974 and Greenfield joined then in 1975.
Dave Greenfield was is hospital fighting against his heart problems but he died after contracting Covid-19 there. He was 71.
Just checked that more musicians died from Covid-19. Dave Greenfield is the only one I know. And I'm very furious and very sad about this.
Farewell, you arpeggios master.
