Punk-guitar pioneer Ron Asheton found dead

The world didn’t always give Ron Asheton his proper dues. But the Stooges guitarist certainly paid his dues to the world, helping transform the sound of rock music.
Fans and fellow musicians are mourning the death of Asheton, who was found dead early Tuesday at his home in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The death remains under investigation, though foul play is not suspected. Asheton was 60.
