RIP
« on: April 02, 2017, 07:06:48 PM »
Lee Baker, Jr., who the world knew as Lonnie Brooks, passed away April 1 at age 83.
I had the honor of doing sound for Lonnie numerous times in the early '80s; he was a superb musician, a consummate showman, and a really nice guy.

He was a great guitarist and a very nice man.  I got to run sound for him several times at the Maintenance Shop in Ames, IA.  I got to sit in with the band (on Sweet Home Chicago) in 1989.  Rolling Stone had a very nice article on him in the 09/24/87 issue.
