R.I.P Rusty Young
« on: April 15, 2021, 10:50:50 PM »
Rusty Young, founding member of Poco, has passed.   I always thought Poco was one of those gems of a band that was under-appreciated.

Well, that's a serious bummer.

He could drag a pretty mean bar.

That's too bad... I actually have a Melobar like he used and was inspired to get it after seeing a picture of him playing one.

The original lineup was a good band, and so was the classic lineup, and everything in between.  Was recently thinking of copying a few favorites off my CD's for the car.  Would be good to listen again.

I wonder if Alembic would ever make a slide guitar of some kind.
