Stooges saxophonist Steve Mackay dies

(BBC) Steve Mackay, the saxophonist who appeared on The Stooges' 1970 album Fun House, has died aged 66.


The musician, who had been touring with the group since their reformation in 2003, developed sepsis after undergoing surgery last month.

"Steve was a classic '60s American guy, full of generosity and love for anyone he met," said singer Iggy Pop in a statement on Facebook.

"Every time he put his sax to his lips and honked, he lightened my road."

"He was a credit to his group and his generation. To know him was to love him."
