LOS ANGELES – Kenny Edwards, an original member of the Stone Poneys country-rock band and longtime collaborator with singer-songwriters Linda Ronstadt and Karla Bonoff, has died in California at age 64.

The Los Angeles Times reports Edwards was hospitalized earlier this month in Denver after collapsing while on tour with Bonoff. He was airlifted to a hospital near his home in Santa Barbara where he died.

After the Stone Poneys disbanded after their 1967 breakthrough hit "Different Drum," Edwards formed the folk-rock band Bryndle with singer-songwriter Wendy Waldman, Bonoff and Andrew Gold.

He also was a supporting guitarist and singer for Stevie Nicks, Don Henley, Brian Wilson, Art Garfunkel, Vince Gill and others.

My first concert was at San Fernando Valley State College. On the bill were the Stone Ponies and Savory Brown.

Good Wikipedia entry ont he SP's.

RIP, pal.

That's too bad,it seems like a lot of rock stars from the 60s aren't making it past their 60s,that's kind of scarey.The Stone Poneys and Savoy Brown must have been a great concert especially if Linda was with them, her looks and voice could melt steel in these days,she's still not hard to look at or listen to.
