He's not one to ever be forgotten. His spirit lives in every musician he's ever worked with on the coast...exactly how he'd want it. |
He really made the music scene here a lot different than the one I recall when I left for California in 1983. It was really cutthroat and bands didn't have much camaraderie at all.
He loved the Coast so much and he wanted to make it a better place for musicians to grow and prosper. That's a great legacy and I'm proud that he made his mark here.
You know Biloxi III is finished and available at
www.biloximusic.com now. 4 songs sung by Clyde and he plays on several more, Mark sings on 10 more. 14 songs in all. I like it quite a bit myself, really sad though because it's the last we'll hear from him. Mark, Dave and Rob did a great job on finishing it up though. They are playing at Rocklahoma from what Mark tells me too!
