Titre : Kopecky en deuil Source / Auteur : AmarokProg Date : 07/07/2009 Nb consultation : 1880
C'est avec tristesse que nous apprenons la disparition de Paul Kopecky à l'âge de 37 ans. Nos pensées vont à la famille et aux amis évidemment.
***********************
Paul Kopecky (1971-2009)
We are deeply saddened to announce that our brother Paul James
Kopecky passed away on June 22, 2009 due to complications related to juvenile
diabetes. He was only 37 years old.
For the past two years KOPECKY was unable to play because of Paul's
deteriorating health. We hoped beyond hope to play together again,
but unfortunately it was not to be.
Paul was an exceptional drummer whose unique style shaped and helped
define the KOPECKY sound. His drumming was powerful but precise,
innovative but instinctive, and always, always tasteful. He played
selflessly, crafting his parts to suit the song, not his ego. We were
always suprised by his phenomenal talent, and we often marveled
at how he could, with a minimum of practice, play extremely
complicated tracks in just one or two takes in the recording studio.
And in concert, Paul was solid as bedrock and played his
absolute best despite being frequently ill on stage.
His excellent drumming can be heard on all five KOPECKY CD's: Kopecky
(Mellow, 1999), Serpentine Kaleidoscope (Cyclops, 2000), Orion
(M.A.C.E., 2001), Sunset Gun (Musea, 2003), and Blood (Unicorn
Digital, 2006).
The world of progressive rock has lost an amazing drummer, and
this planet has lost one of the kindest, most warm-hearted souls that
ever walked the earth. He will surely be missed by many.
Thanks to all friends and fans who have offered their condolences.
Your kind words are deeply appreciated.
