0neiros Master Member May 15, 2015 #5 He also lived with Diabetes for Decades, and is an inspiration to those of us who have to deal with it. Tonight his guitar gently weeps.

PHArchivist Master Member May 15, 2015 #6 On the eve of the SoCal (south OC) Doheney Blues Fest... Sad, and poignant timing.
cayman shen Master Member May 16, 2015 #8 Sad news. I'm just working my way through a "how to play blues guitar" book/CD and of course, his name comes up often. He was definitely one of the keepers of the flame in a musical world whose tastes have moved on (and not often for the better).

CB2001 Master Member May 16, 2015 #10 It's sad he's gone. But then again, the blues often dealt with loss. So, I guess we all know what the blues feel like.
