I liked the late Gary Thain better.

I've always been a fan of his work in The Spiders from Mars, and I
happened to find a documentary online about that band, and there was
some good interview footage of him there. That got me wondering what he
had been doing since then. I knew he had worked with Uriah Heep, but I
didn't realize he was still with them. I found lots of youtube clips of
him with Heep and other bands, and I admire his playing now even more
than before. He was a really fine rock bassist, very melodic, with
great tone and energy.

I didn't realize he had been ill, and am sorry to hear about his death,
especially since I was just becoming reacquainted with his playing.

RIP, Trevor.
