Sad news. Really enjoyed these guys back in the day. Never saw them live but they made quite a racket on their albums. RIP Col.

Very sad news. I never saw them live, but I understand they were brilliant. I think Col might have posted on one of the previous Quo messageboards. Also I met him in The Distillers before one of the Frantic Four reunion gigs.

Really sad news Saw Spider a few times back in the early 80's, both as a headline act and also supporting Gillan. I think they also might have appeared on The Tube on Channel 4 at some point. I'm sure I videoed it. First thing I ever heard from them was this single played on Radio 1. Went straight out and bought it. It was during a Quo hiatus so it filled gap nicely  Can't find a studio recording of it so live Reading '82 will have to do. RIP, Col. |

Used to book a local town hall building 1982/83 with a snooker table in it and me and my mates would play Quo and Spider on our ghetto blaster.
