Genuinely shocked when he died. Apparently not in good health and an accidental overdose of pain killers and anti depressants

Loved his music and had no idea he was ill. Could say the same about Prince and Michael Jackson though.

Loved his music

Fortunately I got to see him at the BST festival Hyde Park just a few weeks before he died. Bloody brilliant.

I get to see quite a few live concerts and just love much of what I get to see (well should say saw thanks to frigging Corona) - Tom was, for me, right up amongst the gods.

I'm learning to fly, but I aint got wings.

Saw TP a couple of times, first time was Damn The Torpedoes tour back in 79 at Hammy Odeon I think. One of my all time favourite bands, shocked when he died.

So distinctive, that languid style of his. One of the Greats.

my biggest regret was not seeing him in 1977.

every album he has made is almost a life soundtrack. Loved everyone apart that is from what he rated as one of his best, being wildflowers.
