I've just seen this. I was a big of the original GoF. One of the very best live bands in their heyday. Dave was also a member of Shriekback, who did some innovative stuff. Big influence on me when I was learning bass as a youngster.
Always one of my favourite bands back in the day and still remain so. Quite strange I had a bit of a Gang Of Four binge, just a few days ago. They were great.

Oh that's terrible news, I always thought GOF led the way in post-punk spiky guitar music. He played in Shriekback, too.
Thanks for letting us know. I had no idea.
