Lemmy and Ozzy Osbourne remember late Motorhead drummer Phil Taylor

Lemmy and Ozzy Osbourne have added their tributes to former Motorhead drummer Phil Taylor, who died on Wednesday night (11Nov15).
Details about the rocker’s death are still hazy, but Taylor was 61 when he passed.
His former band leader, Lemmy, released a statement on Thursday (13Nov15), and confessed he was “devastated” by the news.
He wrote, “I’m feeling very sad at the moment, in fact devastated because one of my best friends died yesterday. I miss him already. His name was Phil Taylor, or Philthy Animal, and he was our drummer twice in our career. Now he’s died and it really p**ses me off that they take somebody like him and leave (former U.S. President) George Bush alive.”
Ozzy was also stunned by the news and took to Facebook to remember his friend, writing, “Just heard about Phil ‘Philthy Animal’ Taylor’s passing. It’s a terrible terrible loss. He was a great friend – great drummer – a great guy and he will be dearly missed. Today is a very sad day for me. Rest in peace.”
But Ozzy ended his tribute with a quip, adding, “he still owes me 500 bucks from that time in Vegas.”
Slash and Mike Portnoy have also offered up tributes to the late drummer, and Megadeth’s Dave Mustaine adds, “I am very sad to hear about the passing of Phil ‘Philthy Animal’ Taylor. My condolences to his family. Rest In Peace Phil.”
