Not officially confirmed anywhere yet but looks very much like Jason David Frank aka OG Green Ranger/White Ranger has killed himself.

GOAT Power Ranger IMO. RIP Tommy.

RIP to both of them

I'd recommend everyone watch Oil City Confidential, really great documentary on Wilko and the band.

Dr Feelgood, The Blockheads and Game Of Thrones. Not bad for a lad from Canvey Island.

….sad news about David Johnson dying at 71, seem to recall he scored on debut in every competition he played in for the Toffees.

Dr Feelgood were one of the best live bands.
Too often I've been disappointed when bands sound awful on stage but not them.

Dr Feelgood were one of my favourite bands growing up. Met them in the old Virgin recored shop in St John's precinct, got their autographs. Went to see Wilko earlier this year in New Brighton and you could see he was struggling a bit. Great band and a top bloke. Check out his guitar tutorial on YouTube of his unique playing style. So sad, RIP Wilko
