Died On This Date (September 21, 2006) Boz Burrell / King Crimson, Bad Company

Raymond “Boz” Burrell
August 1, 1946 – September 21, 2006

Boz Burrell is best remembered as a singer for King Crimson during the early ’70s and as the bassist for Bad Company from 1973 until 1999 (on and off).   But before all that, Burrell was pegged to replace the Who’s Roger Daltrey when the other band members decided to fire him in the mid ’60s.  That never came to be, and Burrell went on to record several singles on his own.  Boz Burrell suffered a fatal heart attack at the age of 60.
