R.I.P. Ronnie


I could write a lot of things about him: for his beautiful, powerful and characteristic voice, for his compositions, for his lyrics or for the "devil horns" that he make it the greeting gesture of all metalheads. However, I would like to say that apart from all the above, Ronnie was a GREAT person and a very sensitive guy. Just remember that the Hear N' Aid project was his own idea. Without doubt, he was a remarkable singer. Rock/Metal music is poorer after his death...

As a tribute, I decided to upload his first solo album, just to have him in mind at his best times.

Your songs will live forever Ronnie...
