Iggy Pop wrote a touching tribute to his friend on Twitter upon hearing of his death.
Ricky Gardiner, the musician best known for playing with David Bowie and Iggy Pop, has died.
The rising musician was then invited to play on Tony Visconti’s solo album “Inventory,” which led to his introduction to Bowie. Visconti co-produced Bowie’s “Low” album and brought Gardiner to play lead guitar on the first half of the iconic album. Gardiner is credited with creating the three-note riff for “The Passenger,” which was described as “one of the greatest riffs of all time,” by Bowie’s biographer David Buckley.
