He will be missed. I enjoyed his music and he had a singular style.

According to the linked news story, he was 54 (not 52). Still way too young.

Lee, do you want me to change the title?

Michael,

Yes, please change the thread title. Sorry for the error.

Thats a f***** tradegy. I was looking forward to seeing him live next year. He was an awesome but underated talent. We've lost too many greats this year.

Never cared much for his choice of music. I sure did love his voice though. Sad

Very sad indeed. My favorite LP was "Sneakin Sally Through the Alley". Also George Plimpton died. Another loss to the literary community.
