Ian Walter Nelson (23 April 1956, Wakefield, Yorkshire, England[1] – 23 April 2006) was an English new wave musician, and younger brother of Be-Bop Deluxe singer and guitarist Bill Nelson, whom he accompanied in different musical projects. He played mainly the saxophone.
Biography
He was more than seven years younger than his brother Шаблон:Nowrap, who was present at the time of his birth, on 23 April 1956. Шаблон:Nowrap Walter, who was a saxophonist, taught him to play saxophone, which would later be Ian's principal instrument.
His first participation was on the Be-Bop Deluxe song Шаблон:Nowrap from the Шаблон:Nowrap album (1976). When this band split up, Bill, alongside keyboardist Шаблон:Nowrap, reunited with Ian on saxophone, and formed Шаблон:Nowrap, a synthpop band which lasted briefly and was a continuation of Шаблон:Nowrap.
After Шаблон:Nowrap split up, Шаблон:Nowrap spent some time collaborating in his brother Bill's solo career. In 1982, he joined Fiat Lux; during his three years with the band they released a number of singles, but only had two minor UK hits, "Secrets" and "Blue Emotion". Fiat Lux gigged England and Europe until they broke up in 1985.
He reappeared in the early 1990s as member of Шаблон:Nowrap and from 2002 to 2006 was in Шаблон:Nowrap[2] and Шаблон:Nowrap. He was also a member of the line-up of a failed reformation of Шаблон:Nowrap in 1990.[3]
He also worked with Richard Jobson, Level 42, The Sound, Nik Kershaw and Howard Jones among others.
Nelson died in his sleep, and was later found on his 50th birthday, on 23 April 2006, by his wife Diane.[4]
