Graeme Edge, drummer with UK prog legends the Moody Blues, has died, aged 80, it has been confirmed by fellow Moody Blues colleague John Lodge.

"Sadly Graeme left us today," said Lodge on Twitter earlier. "To me he was the White Eagle of the North with his beautiful poetry, his friendship, his love of life and his unique style of drumming that was the engine room of the Moody Blues. I will miss you Graeme."

Fellow Moody Blue Justin Hayward said: “It’s a very sad day. Graeme’s sound and personality is present in everything we did together and thankfully, that will live on.

Very sad to hear that.  I had the pleasure of seeing him on stage in 1966.
