>>>>>Someone sent me this link to youtube. It is my brother, Rick Harvey, playing on Beale Street back in '87. Rick died about 15 years ago from complications of alcohol and other substances. What a waste. He was an excellent musician. See for yourself -

>>Yes, that guy! SRV - another tragic loss to musical expansion. He also battled the demons of drugs and alcohol. From what I've read he had completely cleaned up years before his death. Can you imagine after beating that to end up dying in a helicopter wreck. The world of rock and roll… Maybe there is a greater music experience in a place we don’t know about that requires the best.

>>Now Willie is a cool dude and I think the world of him but the man can not play guitar.

>True about Willie, but hey he is a superstar. I thought it was kinda cool that Rick was friends with both.
Yes, Willie is a superstar and it is very cool! RIP Rick.
