Just saw this on the news. Another one of the greats gone. Terribly sad.

“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    Too bad... I was fortunate enough to see him open for Tom Petty a couple of years ago at the Gorge. First and only time seeing him but he was still putting on a hell of a show, full of energy and great backing band. R.I.P. Lord lift him up where he belongs....
  • My Mom and I danced to one of his tunes at my wedding. One she used to sing to me as a baby. Not my generation but total loss for music.
