Ron Asheton, guitarist and founding member of the Stooges, was reportedly found dead at his home in Ann Arbor, Michigan this morning. He was 60 years old. Official cause of death has not yet been announced but initial indications suggest Asheton had a heart attack. Police entered Ashetons home and discovered his body on a couch after his personal assistant was unable to reach the rocker for days. Detective Bill Stanford told Michigan Live it appeared Asheton passed away several days ago.
I believe he was a great guitarist and its really a shame.. He will always be remembered & has made a HUGE impact on the music world for sure.
