I know a couple of us here are big McGoech fans.

John McGeoch | Velvet Joy Productions crowdfunding a documentary on legendary guitarist | Film Stories (https://filmstories.co.uk/news/velvet-joy-productions-crowdfunding-a-documentary-on-musician-john-mcgeoch/)

Quote from: Film StoriesThe documentary, which is titled John McGeoch: The Light Pours Out Of Me, is described as "a film about loss, contextualised by a daughter who lost her father and also framed within a narrative about a super talented maverick musician whose work is not – but should be – widely known."

McGeoch struggled with his mental health and passed away in 2004, aged 48. The guitarist quit the music industry in order to spend more time with his family and qualified as a nurse, dedicating his life to help others, while he, too, needed a helping hand. McGeoch worked particularly closely with Alzheimer's patients.
