Viv Prince, the wildman drummer who was notorious for his short stint with British Invasion rockers the Pretty Things, has died. Jack White broke the news of Prince’s passing on Instagram, writing, “Viv was an incredible drummer, wild and full of abandon. He played for the band The Pretty Things, and he influenced many other musicians like Keith Moon. I was lucky enough to meet Viv some years ago who was working on his farm in Portugal at the time. He was an inspired and eccentric rock and roller and maybe I’ll have to put together a team to work on a documentary about this man one day.” No cause of death has been reported. Prince was 84.
