He would have been 60 today. I'm draggin' the Leslie out to the Farmers Market gig today to play a little Redneck Jazz in tribute.

Thanks for remembering and reminding, Miles. I think I'll pick a few licks myself. :-) CS

You are missed. I had the good fortune of seeing him play live twice, and was able to meet him and chat with him once.

Musicians of his caliber are rare, and I feel blessed to have witnessed it...if only briefly.

Hard to believe it's been that long....RIP Danny. You still live in the music and memories you left us.
