LONDON, June 25 (UPI) -- Pete Quaife, former bassist for the British rock band the Kinks, has died after undergoing kidney dialysis for more than a decade, the BBC said Friday.
He was 66.
The cause of the musician's death was not immediately reported.
Quaife co-founded the Kinks and played on the band's earlier hits including "You Really Got Me," "All Day and All of the Night" and "Dedicated Follower of Fashion." He left the group after five years in 1969 and was replaced by John Dalton, the BBC noted.
He also fronted a group Mapleoak, but it did not enjoy as much success as the Kinks did.
