Well this sucks. I always thought that he was a really underrated guitarist. I was really into these guys. Had all of their albums from the 70's and 80's.

Damn that's a shame, rock in peace.

Whiskey Drinkin' Woman is one my all time favorite songs.

RIP Mr. Charlton.
80 is a good run, especially for rockers / the lifestyle.

i found out about this band in the late 70's, as I unknowingly bought their live album 'Its Naz' from a cut-out bin. I developed a acquired appreciatino for them - great garage rock, especially 'Hair of the Dog' and 'Holiday'.

RIP, Manny.

Great band, always playing in our house in the 70's. My sis bought an album for love hurts and it just went from there. Even my mum liked them.
RIP Manny.

They had a few great albums. And one of the best voices in rock. Unique group.

That sucks. Hair of the Dog is a mainstay in my playlists, and I love cuts like Whiskey Drinkin' Woman and Crazy. But, yes, 80 is a great run for their line of work.
