Drummer Rick Buckler, best known for his work with The Jam passed away earlier today, 18th February 2025.
On the news of Rick’s passing Paul Weller has said…
“I’m shocked and saddened by Rick’s passing. I’m thinking back to us all rehearsing in my bedroom in Stanley Road, Woking. To all the pubs and clubs we played at as kids, to eventually making a record. What a journey! We went far beyond our dreams and what we made stands the test of time. My deepest sympathy to all family and friends – P.W x”
Bruce Foxton has written
“I was shocked and devastated to hear the very sad news today. Rick was a good guy and a great drummer whose innovative drum patterns helped shape our songs. I’m glad we had the chance to work together as much as we did. My thoughts are with Leslie and his family at this very difficult time”.
Rick Buckler is survived by his wife Lesley and two children, Jason and Holly.
