OK, so a matter of opinion drove the narrative there. I’ll agree Jack was a great player, Dusty was good. Hardly in the same category though. There are other 3 piece bands that have suffered the same or similar losses, probably more recently as well.
To me, I would’ve argued: first Neil Peart, then this...
Peart’s passing was a huge blow to Rush though, one they will never recover from as a band - just like Bonham’s death: Zeppelin. so even this isn’t a great comparison because ZZ will move on without Dusty - or will be able to more readily, however the impact to the fan base is probably similar and the death more recent and in line with the initial comment.
To each their own.
Also, I’, just explaining why I found the comment so “out there” in this regard. None of the above is really meant as an admonishment.
” ZZ will move on without Dusty”
Rev. Billy F. Gibbons is 71 and Frank is 72. While they will undoubtedly play a bit, they aren’t Keith Richard (I guess he’s calling himself Richards in his old age). ZZ is on it’s last legs.
Note: Watch BFG’s left hand while he plays. It doesn’t move much. If you had to put a graphic next to the word “cool” in the dictionary, it would be a photo of BFG.
