pjbear05 Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Marty Balin, vocalist for Jefferson Airplane, dead at 76 from unknown causes. He was apparently recovering from a botched surgery. Ultimate Classic Rock post to Facebook was my source, but I'm on a Fire, can't copy and paste. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RushFanForever Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 (edited) When I saw this piece of news; where it says 'unknown causes' made me wonder. I think this piece posted here a month ago reiterating what you quoted pjbear05 is a contributor to his passing.

blueschica Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 (edited) RIP, Marty. What a horrible thing to have happened in the hospital! I always enjoyed his vocals . . . he had a distinctive voice. Edited September 29, 2018 by blueschica 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I remember reading a quote from one of Marty's contemporaries along the lines of "Marty wasn;t part of the San Francisco scene, he was the San Francisco scene ... Very influential time in music history, and Marty was one of the people who drove it .. RIP Marty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

driventotheedge Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 IIRC Alvin Lee of Ten Years After went under the knife for a simple procedure and died during surgery. Doctors fukk up folks, they're human. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
