sheldonm Posted August 13, 2005 Report Posted August 13, 2005 I read today that Lucky Thompson passed away in Seattle last Saturday at the age of 81. If this has been posted before, forgive me!!! If not, very sad; always dug his playing. Mark Quote
Soul Stream Posted August 13, 2005 Report Posted August 13, 2005 Didn't even know he was still alive. AMG said he completely and utterly dropped music in the mid 70's never to be heard from again. A shame. I understand why he would do this. A great jazz musician is not a very prized commodity to American society. Quote
