Dave Wilson realised his vision. His legacy will live on as long as people play music through his creations. I hope his family finds some solace in that.

Here is a video of Daryl explaining Dave's last days. It's very difficult to watch, tbh.

Yes the real more important and more talented Dave Wilson ( not me the other Dave Wilson ). Anyway read a few years back he was fighting major health issues. Very sad. Great guy and a hell of a dad and talent, RIP Dave, you will be missed, my prayers go out to all your family.

So sorry to have heard this too
