Raymond ‘Boz’ Burrell, the original bass player for Bad Company, has died at his home in Spain at the age of 60.

Prior to founding the all-star Bad Company with Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirke of Free and Mick Ralphs of Mott The Hoople, Burrell was the frontman for prog-rock act King Crimson.

A statement released by Bad Company’s record label Swan Song reads “It is with deep regret and profound sorrow that we announce the death of our dear friend and colleague Raymond "Boz" Burrell, one of the original members and bass player in Bad Company. Boz died on September 21, 2006 at his residence in Spain. We express our gratitude to Boz for his important contribution to Swan Song and to the music of his generation. We extend our sincere condolences to his wife and family”.

Sputnik also expresses its condolences to Burrell's family and everyone affected.
