    Apparently when he played in Glasgow he'd wear a Celtic scarf and a Rangers hat :56:

    Absolute legend, produced some real quality music but wasted a lot of his life on drugs. Think he had HIV as well. His last album was quite good as well.

    There was a song written about his dad playing for Celtic, called The Black Arrow, and Gil was going to record a cover of this for his next album. Don't know if he got round to it or not.
