Guitarist Denny Laine, who worked with Paul McCartney for a long time, died at the age of 79. The co-founder of Wings and The Moody Blues succumbed to lung disease on Tuesday.
“My dear husband today (on Tuesday, editor’s note) he died peacefully early in the morning. I was at his bedside, holding his hand and playing his favorite Christmas songs,” Elizabeth Haines, wife of the legendary musician, said on Instagram.
Laine spent the last week of his life in the intensive care unit. He had been battling lung disease, to which he succumbed on Tuesday.
