The Rolling Stones are devastated by the loss of their very dear friend and legendary sax player Bobby Keys. The 70 year old has passed away at his home in Franklin, Tennessee, after a long illness. Keys frequently led the horn section for Jagger and the boys in studio and on the road, but also played with other greats like John Lennon, Joe Cocker, Eric Clapton, George Harrison and John Lennon. Bobby made a unique musical contribution to the band since the 1960s. He will be greatly missed, said the Rolling Stones. His sax playing was a key part of the bands sound on albums including Exile on Main Street and Sticky Fingers. I have lost the largest pal in the world, said Keith Richards. I cant express the sense of sadness I feel although Bobby would tell me to cheer up.
