Echo and the Bunnymen's former keyboard player has been killed in a motorbike crash on the Isle of Man.
Jake Brockman, 53, died when his bike was in collision with a converted ambulance near Kirk Michael.
Known to fans as the "Fifth Bunnyman", he had been associated with the band since its 80s heyday and became a full-time member in 1989.
In 1989 the band's first drummer Pete De Freitas had died in a crash.
A spokesman for the Manx Police confirmed Mr Brockman's death.
In a statement, his family and wife Sally Mundy said: "Jake was always a classic bike enthusiast, he loved sailing though he was invariably seasick.
"Music was central to Jake's life."
Mr Brockman, who was a married man, lived with his wife in Bristol. He worked as a sound recordist for the BBC's natural history unit on several projects.
The band has paid tribute to Mr Brockman on its official website.
He was was riding along the Kirk Michael to Ballaugh Road on Tuesday evening when the accident happened.
Mr Brockman was taken to Noble's Hospital but died from his injuries a few hours later.
Investigations into the crash are continuing.
