Having seen John with both Magazine and the Banshees, I can only agree
with Steve - he was an amazing guitar player with a sound like no one
else.  I'm stunned.  The Light Pours Out Of Me, indeed.

Agreed. This info was fwded to me by a friend early yesterday. I met him 
after Magazine played Bookies in Detroit. Sad stuff - I wonder why he died?
