GA Russell Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 Sad to hear it. Don't try to lay no boogie woogie on the king of rock and roll! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonF Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 Just last week I was listening to Jimmy Witherspoon at a live date in which he invited Baldry to the stage and they sang Times Getting Tougher Than Tough together. Two greats that will be missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinuta Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 Sad news. I saw him countless times with The Hoochie Coochie Men and their show was always great. Although he never reached the fame of band member Rod 'The Mod' Stewart, he was an important figure in the 60's British R&B scene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
