R.I.P. Mitch Mitchell

Idolator and the New York Times have got the obit front covered, but pour out a little Murray’s pomade for Mitch Mitchell, purveyor of one of the finest white boy ‘fros of all-time and a winner of the Griffith J. Griffith Award for Excellence in the Field of Nomenclature (take that Sirhan Sirhan).  Granted, Mitchell’s fro fell far short of the tonsorial triumph that was Noel Redding (to say nothing about Jimi Hendrix’s G.A.O.T), but it remains an inspiration to us all. Oh, and he was also good at that drumming thing.
