MOTORHEAD Pay Tribute To Ex-Guitarist At Sonisphere

On July 9th, former MOTÖRHEAD guitarist Michael "Würzel" Burston passed away in the UK. He was aged 61.

Motörhead drummer Mikkey Dee spoke to Sweden's Expressen newspaper about Würzel's passing, stating: "He wrote damn good Motörhead riffs. I remember that I missed that when he was not there. I missed the simple classic Motörhead riffs. They were never written after that. They left with him."

Describing Würzel, Dee continues, "He was wonderful, he was really funny. There was a lot of rock and roll in the old man."
