who is this guy?

Shiiiiiiiiiit, Chris is genuinely one of my favourite artists. RIP big guy. Love his later growly blues but I've a sincere love for his 'what if Elton John but straight' early years.

>>128890778
Took for fucking ever to get a sticky for Ozzy. Retarded or just plain absent, take your pick.

how does this motherfucker look differe^nt in every pic?

happy reminder there's going to be a deluge of 60's/70's musicians dying off in the coming years

My absolute favourite albums of his are Water Sign and God's Great Banana Skin: but, here's a few songs from the shuffle, all bangers.

I'd rather they didn't, it's not that kind of affair.

>>128890980
if he'd died mid-July, no one would give a shit. Like George Michael, made himself an Ultimate Xmas Artist now
>topical to the end, F.

>>128889266
based inspiration to all:
he didn't start playing guitar until his 20's!

will be missed
Driving Home For Christmas will be played millions and millions of times every Christmas forever, so he left a nice legacy

Well. He has a long road to hell to ride

Damn
Dude always had kino videos

And the most memorable songs for a bluesy pop-rock artist.
His songs are way more tuneful than Clapton's

Sticky now
