So sad to hear of the passing of Andrew ‘The Clobber’ Ranken. He was a terrific drummer who was absolutely integral to The Pogues raw, unconfined sound - his snare at the start of Sally MacLennane illustrating the point.

Thinking of his friends and family.

Desperately sad to hear Andrew (Desert Drifter) has passed away yesterday and prayers for his family :(

Also, I genuinely think that #Covid infections were (indirectly, but significantly) responsible for the deaths of two friends in 2022 and 2024. #FiveYearsOn #RIPAndrew #RIPArron
