im a huge, huge fan of Steinman and his power ballads whether its his work with Meat Loaf or with the numerous other artists he wrote for.

loved his only album, Bad For Good....

Florian Pilkington-Miksa - he was the drummer for Curved Air in the early days - left them for other pursuits and then joined them again further down the line. He'd been struggling with persistent pneumonia - 70 years of age. R.I.P.

not familliar with him:
his Wiki says "Pilkington-Miksa died in May 2021 after several bouts of pneumonia, at the age of 70" (so why if had several bouts of Pneumonia had he not had the Pneumo-vax injection????)

^^There could be all sorts of answers to that question. Contrary to popular idiom, the road to hell is probably paved with assumptions.
