I saw him in a college auditorium on Long Island in (approx) 1975. Great live show. Too many greats dropping lately
Never saw him play, but I liked him and his music. Between he and Leon Redbone, offbeat music has lost a couple greats lately.
about 30 years ago i saw Fabulous Thunderbirds, Dr John, Buddy Guy, and BB King at Wolf Trap in NoVA and I haven't been the same since. RIP Dr John.
