Glenn Branca dead at 69 from throat cancer

this is from WFMU in New York, confirmed by billboard.com. even if you don't care for his compositions, he's still pivotal for his influence on Lee and Thurston of Sonic Youth and Michael Gira of Swans, all of whom performed as part of his early ensemble in the 80s. RIP.

RIP 
First got into Glenn because of his connection to John Giorno; have long-time love for his prepared guitar ethos and who-gives-a-fuck-about-tradition guitorchestral compositions and conceptions. Another trailblazer gone

Never got to see any of Branca's compositions live, but got to meet him briefly years ago. He was a giant.
