Southend Punk was sad to hear of the passing of Mike Killie, legendary drummer with The Only Ones. I was lucky to see him live three times with The Only Ones and his playing was phenomenal, truly sublime. An official statement from the surviving Only Ones reads: MIKE KELLIE. 1947-2017 We are deeply saddened to learn of the death of our friend and colleague Mike Kellie. Kellie learned of his illness last September but, characteristically, chose to keep the diagnosis private. We will post more, personal, appreciations in due course but, for the moment, we will recall the 40 years of music-making we shared with him. A gentleman, a friend and a fine musician. Our thoughts are with his family. Peter and Zena Perrett, Alan Mair, John Perry. R.I.P. Mike louderthanwar.com/mike-kellie-ones-spooky-tooth-drummer-rip/
