jmjk Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 Any fan of King Crimson's Islands lp will appreciate knowing that drummer Ian Wallace died yesterday. As far as I can gather, he was fighting esophageal cancer, and as a result of a mistake made by a relatively new nurse, Ian ended up with a lot of fluid in his lungs and a nasty infection---which killed him a few days later.
