Musician Jeff Cook has died aged 73 after being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease five years ago.
The star, who co-founded the hugely successful country band Alabama passed away at his home in Florida, a representative of the band confirmed.
With Alabama, Jeff played the guitar, the fiddle and was also a singer. Alongside cousins Randy Owen and Teddy Gentry, and drummer Bennett Vartanian, Jeff and the band landed eight No. 1 songs on the country charts between 1980 and 1982.
