    Super sad to read this. I really got into faithless and loved Maxi Jazz' vocal style.

    Shocked that he was 65!!

    Quite a shock to hear about someone from a more recent musical generation than my own - I didn't realise he was as old as 65, but that's still no age really.

    He and Faithless were a big part of why I started listening to dance music and not just guitar-based rock music in the 90s.

    Huge talent.

    RIP :(

    Sad to hear this. I saw faithless at a festival in the early 2000s and it was absolute mayhem. Good memories.

    They were playing Faithless tunes in a pub I was in a few weeks ago. It really has aged well and Maxi Jazz had such a personality coming through. RIP

    It’s actually been doing the rounds since his death was announced. It’s become a sort of meme.. I think people who knew him personally have said it online, so I don’t think it was meant disrespectfully in this case, either..
     so if you fancy a reissue of a guitar they never made in a colour they never used then it probably isn't too overpriced.

    I used to watch Faithless regularly back in the day - a really  good live band -dynamic and very different to the records. I had the chance to chat to Mr Jazz. a few times - he really seemed liked a very genuine and down to earth fella... seemed very happy to chat. RIP.
