T-Mac Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 One of favorite performers of all time. His life was one big tour and he refused to quit even after the cancer diagnosis. He played not for a living, but because he loved it and that passion came through in his music. I've seen him in places like The Jewish Mother in Va. Beach, and Blues Cruise from the South Street Seaport. As a New Orleans local, he always played Jazz Fest. For some strange reason they always put him on stage when the biggest name acts where playing opposite him. Names like Van Morrison and Joe Cocker couldn't pull me away from the Acura Stage. God Bless. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
