Anthony 'Tony' Clarkin - mastermind, chief songwriter and guitarist for English rock band Magnum. He was 77 and had been diagnosed with a rare spinal condition shortly prior to his passing on the 7th of Jan. The band cancelled their tour to promote their new album which was released on the 12th and on which he was instrumental - pardon the pun! Listening to it now. A rocker to the end, he also had a great affinity with animals and his family will set up a charitable trust to aid this cause - good man. R.I.P. Tony Clarkin.
