R.I.P. Keith Levene (The Clash and Public Image Limited)
British guitarist Keith Levene, a founding member of The Clash and Public Image Limited, is being remembered as a reinventor of punk rock after a friend announced his death on social media.
Author Adam Hammond said Levene died on Friday, with the Guardian reporting the pair were working on a book together.
"Our thoughts and love go out to his partner Kate, sister Jill and all of Keith's family and friends," he said on Twitter.

More awful news - lots of creativity leaving the planet lately. Love the PIL stuff that Keith & Jah Wobble were part of.
Song: The order of death.
Likewise.
Damn it.
I was listening to the Commercial Zone mixes yesterday afternoon and it led me to think about Levene’s massive influence, working with the Slits, Travis Bean guitars, and how cool white socks look with black shoes.
Thanks for all the beauty and Rest In Peace.
I’m a fan. Love his playing on the early PIL material. I was bummed to hear this. I feel fortunate that I saw him play live, if only once.
Who else has noticed a large number of deaths reported of people in their mid-60’s? This is not normal. The average lifespan for men in the US is about 76. For women it’s 81. In the UK it’s supposed to be even higher that those numbers. But not recently.
I imagine the problem is that no data has been compiled specifically on the average life expectancy of rock musicians.
With the notable exceptions of Mick, Keith and Paul, greats like Jimi, Janice, Prince and others have greatly skewed the results to around the mid 60s.
