Golden Earring guitarist George Kooymans – who wrote the driving anthem Radar Love, and helped spearhead Europe's hard rock evolution – has died aged 77.
Radar Love, which has been covered by wide-ranging acts including REM, Def Leppard, and the Blue Man Group, became the Dutch band's signature hit when it was released in 1973. At the time of writing, it's amassed a staggering 174 million Spotify streams.
