R.I.P. Dave Clark Five Lead Singer Mike Smith

Dave Clark Five lead singer Mike Smith died of pneumonia in London Thursday just two weeks before the band was to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He was 64.

Smith had been admitted to the intensive care unit Wednesday with a chest infection, a complication from a 2003 spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed below the ribcage with limited use of his upper body. (band bio)
