RIP Dan Peek

I saw America in Cape Town in the early '80s. Great band, even if they had really crappy lyrics on occasion. To this day, their production is so clear and crystalline in its purity that you would battle to find the tiniest imperfection. Every single chord, line and chorus was perfectly structured. To listen to America even today is to listen to something of impeccable magic.

Dan Peek died yesterday, aged 60.
