21/04/2023 Occasionally I hear a track and think "that must be Mick Karn". Invariably it's a guest appearance - so distinctive.

17/04/2023 I'm listening to "Polytown" with Terry Bozzio and David Torn again. Great playing, Mick.

03/02/2023 I don't think anyone's music has ever impacted me in such a heart wrenching manner and I yearn for the experience I never had in meeting him, and I pray he rests well because I don't go a day without listening to his basslines. It's so very heartwarming to read the stories of others meeting him or seeing him and just being bedazzled by the presence of a musician and *person* they look up to. Just a wonderful person and I wish Kyoko and her family well.

29/01/2023 Despite knowing who he is for a couple of years, I've only recently become acquainted with Mick's work. I absolutely adore his bass playing. I truly think he's one of the most unique artists I've listened to. Rest easy.

17/01/2023 12 years have passed and Mick is missed by so many. I was only 13 when I saw him gliding across the stage playing bass only the way Mick could. Gone, but never ever forgotten by all who’s lives he touched in some way. ❤️

06/01/2023 Still can’t quite believe you are no more … I watch the Japan videos and get so emotional seeing your genius …. Thank you, as always, for the music and sheer class artist that you simply were x

05/01/2023 I hope Mick and his family know how loved and remembered he continues to be 12 years after his untimely death. Across the globe people of all ages are still discovering his art which I find comforting whenever I think of the magnitude of his loss. What a tremendous person he was and what a joy it is to continue to appreciate his legacy. Thank you for keeping this forum up and running.

SONS OF PIONEERS

01/01/2023 Had the chance to meet Mick in 1982. He was very kind and took time to sign some stuff and chat a little. He is not only missed for his great artistic talents but also for the compassion and kindness he showed to others. All of us, the fans, Mick's family and ex-fellow musicians, should therefore celebrate his life. So why not announce a yearly get together at the Argyll Arms (upstairs in the Palladium Bar) in London on the 4th January (his anniversary)? If anyone would like to join in for a drink and a chat this time round, see you there at 8pm.
