    One of the great front men, and the man behind Hear 'n Aid which was a lot better than Band Aid

    Singer at my very first "real" gig - Rainbow at Liverpool Empire 1975(ish). Heavens, that was a long time ago. RIP Ronnie.

    The greatest voice in Metal has gone. RIP Ronnie!

    I saw him live 4 years ago. At his age he was still one of the best showmen in the business. He will be missed in the years to come!

    Very sad news, I saw him live in 2008 and he was fantastic, a great performer even in his 60s. RIP.

    Funny, I was just listening to the soundtrack of the movie Tenacious D: The Pick Of Destiny earlier and remember he was in one of the songs and in the movie itself it at the start. Shame about him passing, RIP.

    Agreed.

    The better quality the artiste, the more talented and hard working - the less coverage they get.

    Other than the BBC news site, I haven't seen or heard a word anywhere else.
