Perhaps he knew it was coming when he released his latest album, "You Want It Darker."

RIP, Mr Cohen

Goodbye to jazz great, bassist Victor Bailey. He was 56.
"Victor Bailey has suffered from Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease for most of his adult life. As the disease progresses, Bailey began using a cane to offset his weakened legs. The weakness finally spread to his upper body, necessitating his 2015 retirement from performing and from his teaching position at Berklee College of Music.[7]" Wiki

Leon Russell at 74. RIP :(


http://www.reuters.com/article/us-peopl ... SKBN1380JM

I hope all you Leon Russell fans had a chance to watch the documentary "The Union" directed by Scott Cameron. Its a a look at the making of Elton John and Leon Russell's collaborative album, "The Union," produced by T-Bone Burnett. Its a great story on how Elton John reacquainted with Leon.

I'm in the process of making a compilation of some of my favorite songs of his. Some go as
far back to when he was part of The Wrecking Crew with Tommy Tedesco and Carol Kaye.

RIP Sharon Jones
Yes, another sad day and loss. We thought for years that maybe she would beat Pancreatic Cancer, but when it returned this past year, the end was assured. She kept touring and doing shows, even had holiday shows coming up.

The Daptone announcement email that went out:

SHARON LAFAYE JONES
May 4, 1956- November 18, 2016

We are deeply saddened to announce that Sharon Jones has passed away after a heroic battle against pancreatic cancer. She was surrounded by her loved ones, including the Dap-Kings.

Thank you for your prayers and thoughts during this difficult time.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the following organizations:
- The Lustgarten Foundation
- James Brown Family Foundation
- Little Kids Rock

Additional memorial details will follow soon.
