It is with sad heart that news comes in about the passing of Ced Sharpley. Ced was an important part of the Numan band both live and in the studio adding his distinctive drum sound to albums such as "The Pleasure Principle", "Telekon", "Dance" and "Berserker". He was also a founding member of Dramatis alongside Rrussell Bell, Chris Payne and Denis Haines who had recently announced the reunion of the band with a new album coming by the end of the year. Gary Numan posted that "Rrussell Bell has just told me that Cedric has died. I don't know what to say. Shocked and very, very sad."
Ah shit that is awful news!
ReplyDeleteI remember watching Ced strut his stuff at the Liverpool empire on the 1979 touring principle tour 'when the curtain rose and he sat there between the twin light towers working like a trojan keeping the whole thing together with Airlane fantastic....allways be in my memory thankyou Cedric...
