RIP Andy Gill


Gang of Four live, Zagreb '81

They looked as good as they sounded.

Andy Gill knew what a Stratocaster was capable of (a uniquely biting treble) and pushed it to its sonic limits.  Beyond that, I don't think the rhythm section gets enough credit -- it was positively disco at times, but still somehow acidic.

That was the point, of course.
