Lemmy wrote:I’m feeling very sad at the moment, in fact devastated, because one of my best friends died yesterday. I miss him already. His name was Phil Taylor, or Philthy Animal, and he was our drummer twice in our career. Now he’s died and it really pisses me off that they take somebody like him and leave George Bush alive. So muse on that ... We’re still going, we’re still going strong, it’s just first Würzel and now Philthy, it’s a shame man. I think this rock ‘n’ roll business might be bad for the human life.

heard the news about phil on the way t the dentist on friday 13th...heard the "news" about wurzel when i read lemmy's statement. i didnt even know wurzel was dead.
RIP wurzel.

Sad to say it's been over 4 years since Würzel left us.

RIP Phil Taylor saw the Bryan Robertson era of the band not good but I was stood right in front of Lemmy so I was in bass heaven!

after his first hiatus from the band, little philthy came back for my favourite motorhead album ever "Rock 'n' Roll". the subsequent tour was the first time i saw motorhead -Rock City 1987. awesome. saw motorhead about 10 times over the next 7 or 8 years many of them with phil.

so....thank you for being part of THE LOUDEST SOUND i have ever heard (the march or die tour at leicester demontfort hall: almost painful at the time, totally stone deaf for 3 days after the event ...)

and thank you for being faster on the double bass-drum pedals than i could ever hope to be,; so much so i didnt bother to use them at all!

a personal hero, a rock n roll legend, and a fucking philthy animal. RIP man.

I was rather shocked when Lemmy announced that at Sonisphere 2011.
