Bio
Scottish guitarist and sax player, born August 25 1955 in Greenock, Renfrewshire, Scotland, UK, died March 4, 2004 in Launceston, Cornwall, England, UK.
Banshees' drummer Budgie wrote a text to honour him on the Siouxsie website, saying: "Without any disrespect to all the other guitarists we have worked with, none had the relaxed mastery and such a depth of expression as John McGeoch. No amount of scrutiny of filmed 'Live' performance tapes could reveal the subtle economy of technique that made an apparently complex phrase look so deceptively simple. Exasperated guitarists would often comment, "But his hands don’t even move!".
