Nik Turner, a saxophone/flute player who was part of several incarnations of space-rockers Hawkwind, has died at 82. No cause was given, but his death was confirmed on his official Facebook page. “We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Nik Turner – The Mighty Thunder Rider, who passed away peacefully at home on Thursday evening,” said the post. “He has moved onto the next phase of his Cosmic Journey, guided by the love of his family, friends and fans.

Watch this space for his arrangements.” Hawkwind once featured Lemmy Kilmister, who went on to form Motörhead after leaving the group.

The Motörhead account on Twitter also took note of Turner’s passing by tweeting, “We lost Lemmy’s old bandmate Nik Turner today.

Play some Hawkwind nice and loud!” Turner was a roadie for Hawkwind when the group formed in 1969, but became an official member later that year.
