That's sad news, Rob. I always thought he was a superb player. My son bought me the whole box set - every recording and take - of the Peter Green Fleetwood Mac recordings. I loved Peter Green very much, but never cared for Jeremy Spence's playing. Too Elmore James for me. Jeremy Spence surfaced in Brighton about 15 years ago. He walked into a pub where the soul band I was playing with had just finished the evening set and was packing up. He came up to me and said, "Can I do a number on your guitar?" I said no, and he then said, "But I'm Jeremy Spence". Made no difference - the answer was still no. Another sad case.
