Richie Hayward. Thanks for the Music.


The photo. My drum sticks. They are the Richie Hayward ones. I will keep them to remember a great drummer by. I won't recite the history of Richie's career, that is all over the internet. We lost him today. I miss him already. Little Feat is one of those bands that I will love like I have for most of my life, all the way back to the early 1970's.. Luckily I have had the chance to meet them all several times and enjoy some awesome shows. That is what living is to me. "Nuff said.

I know Richie lived well for many years and played with the best. Not too many people can say that. Sail on Richie. My motto is "Live now, like there is no tomorrow."

Here is an update from the Little Feat site: I love the Frank Zappa story.

This is what I listened to in the 1970's on WZZQ FM in Jackson, Mississippi:
