Probably the first drummer I ever saw on stage, nearly fifty years ago. He'll be missed.

Here I am, 125 miles from home, and no Band in the car (traveling with my wife and daughter - neither of whom appreciate The Band). I think this warrants a stop at a music store...
He'll be missed by millions of fans, but condolences especially to to those who knew him personally. These are sad days in American music.
