Never hit the big $ so hje had to ask for help when he got sick, but did have a long and really interesting career.

We should all be so lucky.

RIP man. Dali's Car was amazing, along with his collaboration with David Torn and Terry Bozzio.


Huge kudos to Porcupine Tree, who paid Karn's expenses with the money earned on sales of their live album "Atlanta".

The end of a great bass voice. RIP.

For those of us that were influenced by the early day eighties music, Mick Karn as a bass player was maybe the most important bass player. At least for me. I need to listen to his body of work now today as a homage to a master bass player.

Always sad news to learn we've lost a great player from whom we won't be hearing any more.

Mick was a unique, interesting and talented musician and bass player. I will listen to my Japan album when I get home and think fondly of him.

Rest in Peace, Mick. We already miss you.

RIP Mick, one of my favorite fretless players, ever.


I thought this year would suck less for deaths, guess I was wrong.

Oh, man! I've been dreading this news. Mick was (is) one of the hippest cats ever. Such an interesting player, such a unique voice on the instrument...

Keep the groove going in the afterlife, Mick...

Very sad. I'd been trying to keep my eyes open for updates on his health, but thought it was probably only a matter of time. RIP, Mick...

R.I.P. Mr. Karn, thank you for all the great music.
