One of the pioneers's from what I would consider the greatest era of Rock Music. A legend departed.
Not a bad looking 4001 if I might add. Among their many great songs, I always dug Sunny Afternoon.
R.I.P. Pete.

RIP, too bad he did not live longer. At my age, 66 doesn't seem that old!

Every bassist from that era was a trailblazer, so my highest respect for a job well done!

Agreed. 66 seems young by today's standards. I guess fella's lived hard bad then.

Another gone too soon.
