What a great musician and showman. I saw him in the 90's. He never quit smiling the whole show! He really enjoyed it.

Who is this cat and what does it have to do with Guzzi? When I mentioned that one of the greatest actresses of our time, Vanessa del Rio, died I get chewed on like a hambone by a junkyard  dog.

Change it to WildGoose and National Obit forum.

Maybe that's because she ain't dead yet?   That would make a difference in how you write the obit ....

According to Google she most likely played the flute.

Cool guy.  We opened for him a few times and then got invited to sit in for several songs.  It was a blast.  This had to be at least 23 years ago.  Geez............... ...........

As a fan of her work back when, she could definitely be referred to as base.

That's the combustion chamber of the turbo shaft. It is supposed to be on fire. You just don't usually see it but the case and fairing fell off.
