Iggy Pop and Robert Plant share their first experiences of seeing The Who perform live
The son of British rocker and The Who drummer Kenney Jones has died leaving the musician with a "broken heart".
Kenney - who is the only surviving member of the 1960s hitmakers The Small Faces and replaced Keith Moon as The Who's drummer in 1978, shared the devastating news on Thursday (November 7).
The tragedy is the latest to hit the musician following the loss of his bandmates Steve Marriott, Ronnie Lane, and Ian McLagan from The Small Faces, and John Entwistly from The Who, who died in 2002 at the age of 57.
Taking to Facebook to share the devastating news, the 76-year-old penned: "It is with a broken heart that I share the devastating news that my son Jesse has passed.
"I don't have the words right now to fully express how I am feeling. But I want to thank you all for your kind wishes at this indescribably painful time and ask for continued love, respect and privacy as we try to navigate this profound loss as a family."
