It is a very sad day today… I have lost a very dear friend.
Ronnie was a true Leader of Heavy Metal… an Icon and a Visionary… there will never be another like him.
Ronnie gave me wisdom, and showed me great compassion when he was in ELF, all those years ago, when we were on tour together in my time in Deep Purple. He was a beautiful Soul, kind, considerate and a wonderful teacher.
Someday I’ll be bringing your Microphone up there with me, and we’ll sing a song, and share a Vindaloo together…
I’ll miss you mate.
Your Pal,
Glenn Hughes
