Damn - just heard that Steve Grimmett (Grim Reaper/Onslaught/Lionsheart) has passed away aged 62. Possibly not a big name to many here but I was a massive fan of Lionsheart in particular in my younger days . He had such a distinctive voice (and look
) and by all accounts , including one very brief chat I had with him, seemed to be the nicest guy you could ever meet. Like many good eggs in the industry I understand he was milked of almost all the money he should've made by record labels/managers etc....... He has been through hell over recent years - pun not intended - after losing a leg during a tour of Ecuador. Possibly not the best place to develop a severe bone infection , but on the surface at least , he just dealt with it like a trooper and has been performing on and off with a prosthetic leg/wheelchair. One of the genuine good guys.
R.I.P Steve
