Ian McDonald Forum

And another musician that I met has passed away. Ian McDonald, keyboardist and wind instrument virtuoso, passed away yesterday. My FB feed has blown up with all the notifications. I met him in the 1990s while he was doing shows with John Wetton (mostly of Asia fame, also RIP). A very likable, kind person, who was an amazingly talented musician.

He played on Foreigner's hits:
Feels Like the First Tme
Cold As Ice
Long, Long Way From Home (co-writer on this one)
Hot Blooded
Blue Morning, Blue Day
Double Vision
Dirty White Boy
Head Games

He also played a huge part in the debut King Crimson album, as he had a hand in writing all 5 tracks, including their most well-known song "21st Century Schizoid Man". The music was all his for 2 of the tracks (I Talk to the Wind and The Court of the Crimson King).

Rest in peace, Ian.

Thats a big loss. You and i have talked in the past about your love and my like of King Crimson...RIP Ian.

What does this have to do with trading cards?

Has to do with a person who does appear in the DB and has cards. Far from the first time a person has been honored in the forums with a RIP thread. Also there is an off-topic forum where non-trading topics can be discussed by the members. A simple scan of the forum will show MANY threads are aren't specifically related to a card or set. Heck, some of the top ones right now have to do with the NASCAR season starting and the FB HOF announcement. What do those specifically have to do with trading cards?
