I Would LOVE to see.

I would love to see what some of our treasured artist that we love so dearly, who we lost early would be doing today. My favorite artist I have followed since 16, now 66, Van Morrison, Dr.John and Bob Dylan to name a few have led me on a musical journey that in some ways I almost feel like we have spent physical time togeather. The artist that come to mind for me quickly are John Lennon, Gram Parsons, Otis Redding. Who comes to mind for you?

I saw Duane Allman in 1971 at the Syria Mosque in Pittsburgh.  We lost him way too soon shortly after.  

His slide guitar was amazing and the session work showed his depth and breadth of skills, not to mention his brief work with Clapton.

To be succinct, his playing touched my soul.  I can give no greater praise.

Oops, it was Skip not Syd who was wandering around downtown San Jose. Syd spent the last few decades of his life being cared for by his mother. Do a search for pics of him in those years if you want to be shocked. It's enough to scare you off acid!
