3CR drummer dies

The drummer with one of the too often forgotten bands of the late Britpop era, 3 Colours Red, has died, aged 36. Keith Baxter was with 3CR from the start, appearing on their two nineties albums for Creation Records, 'Pure' and 'Revolt', and the album that came out of their 2004 reformation, 'The Union Of Souls'. Prior to joining 3CR he recorded five albums with folk metal outfit Skyclad, which he co-founded as a teenager. After 3CR's first split in 1999 he played with both Elevation and Therapy? He died in a UK hospital last week after suffering liver failure.
