Gosling began playing with The Kinks in 1970 — as noted by Pitchfork — roughly eight years after the band formed. He performed on 10 of the band’s albums during his tenure: Lola Versus Powerman and the Moneygoround, Part One (1970), Percy (1971), Muswell Hillbillies (1971), Everybody’s in Show-Biz (1972), Preservation Act 1 (1973), Preservation Act 2 (1974), Soap Opera (1975), Schoolboys in Disgrace (1975), Sleepwalker (1977), and Misfits (1978). He would later go on to found the Kast Off Kinks, in 1994, alongside fellow former Kinks members Avory, Jim Rodford, and John Dalton. Gosling played in the band until his retirement from music in 2008.
In the wake of his death, many Kinks fans have been sharing memorials to Gosling, with one commenting in the band’s Instagram post, “I got to see him play keys on School Boys in Disgrace tour before a retirement. Ray made announcement that John was continuing his Ballet career!” Someone else added, “Very sad news. Condolences to his family and friends. RIP John. Fly high.”
Musician Ron Sexsmith wrote in a social media post, “I’m just seeing this now but John Gosling…keyboardist for The Kinks has passed away. Always loved his contribution to the band’s sound.” Additionally, the Kinks’ publishing reps at BMG issues a statement that they too are mourning “the passing of John Gosling.” The company went on to state, “John was a much-loved family man and important band member. He will be greatly missed by all those who knew and worked with him.” They concluded their statement, “BMG offers our deepest condolences to John’s family, friends and colleagues.”
