The Passing of Artist Manager Elliott Roberts
Saddened to hear of the passing of legendary recording artist manager Mr. Elliott Roberts. In a cut-throat boisterous business of "ME FIRST" I always admired his carefully crafted 'background status' that he meticulously positioned himself while always putting the recording artist first.

Two Legends Pass in One Week
It's probably an understatement to state that we lost two very great artist this week. Both were true originals with their own unique musical styles. Mac Rebennack "Dr. John" (77) and Leon Redbone (69) passed away but not forgotten. Dr. John served as the unofficial voodoo ambassador of the Crescent City while Leon Redbone's music was a throw-back from the bygone era. Both will be greatly missed.

Leon Redbone's "Up The Lazy River" on Blue Thumb Records |
