Bassist Herbie Flowers, Session Musician and Former Member of T. Rex and Sky, Dies at 86
Bassist Herbie Flowers, a former member of T. Rex and Sky who played on sessions for David Bowie, Lou Reed and others, has died at 86.
His death was confirmed by Hurst Festival, where Flowers was scheduled to play later this month. No cause or date was given.
“He was an amazing person and will be missed,” festival organizers said.
A member of T. Rex and Sky, Flowers is perhaps best known for his session work, which is said to have exceeded 500 recordings by the end of the 1970s. He played alongside Elton John, Roy Harper, Al Kooper, Bryan Ferry and every Beatle save for John Lennon, with his most-famous basslines featuring in David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” and Lou Reed’s “Walk on the Wild Side.”
Through his connection to Paul McCartney, Flowers helped set in motion the events that eventually led to Laurence Juber joining Wings, the drummer said.
“He was a great bass player, a friendly fellow and an inspiration to me as an up-and-coming session player in London,” Juber wrote on social media.
Flowers was a “bass legend,” Chris Wood said. “One of the greatest bass players of all time,” is Fernando Perdomo’s assessment. And Leland Sklar mourned the man he called, simply, “the great Herbie Flowers.”
“A true legend of the instrument,” said bassist Guy Pratt. “There was only one Herbie Flowers.”

I don’t know if I should be concerned about how immensely happy I felt when I discovered that my birthday sort of sandwiched between Captain Kirk’s, Elton Johns and Leonard Nimoy’s.

Another Daily Prompt QOTD My therapist will just love this one! So, let’s have some fun. #MinnesotaIsNext Daily Prompt’s asking the question, “If humans had taglines, what would yours be?” First thought would be the hashtag I use in my social profiles #IamMe.
