Former MOTÖRHEAD Guitarist WÜRZEL Reportedly Dead At 61

Before joining MOTÖRHEAD in 1984, Burston had been a corporal in the Army, serving in Germany and Ireland with the 1st Battalion of the Gloucestershire Regiment, and had played in the bands BASTARD and WARFARE.

I can't help wondering what that battalion exactly did around that time. Especially when I read the word Bastard in the same sentence. Oh well...

R.I.P. Würzel and thanks for co-writting Killed by Death, my favourite Motörhead song (and mainstay of live performances since release -> for me Motörhead's "Hallowed Be Thy Name"), done during the first recording session you did with the noisy boys.
