He was a pretty cool cat, always loved Such a Night and In the Right Place.

RIP

He always appeared to be so comfortable playing the Piano... Anybody who enjoys listening to the piano, needs a bottle of Tanqueray and 14 Dr. John Albums...

He had some big hits. RIP.

He also played in Ringo Starr's Band...

Thanks Ridgely, for a proper homage thread in the proper place.

I'm proud to say I got suspended from a radio station for playing this:

​

And I'd do it again too, in a heartbeat. Fuck 'em if they can't take art.

No problem... Respect is due... What year was the suspension?

That were around 18... no wait, 19.... 1991 I think. It was either 1991, or I got the year backward.

Oh hell you were in good shape in '91'... President George H. W. Bush was manning the helm and I am sure you were living on Big Rock Candy Mountain...

Life was good...

I was playin' the right tune.
But it musta been the wrong time.
My head was in a good place
But for them it was the wrong song.

Pretty soon I figured out what time the Program Director went to sleep. Never got busted again.

Fortunately the PD was not Bush. This guy was even stupider.
