R.I.P, sometimes great music comes around as suggestion only to be forgotten over a night of heavy drinking. And next time I recall any of it is in form of one of these kinda threads.

I like to think he rode home on a pure white lawnmower.

RIP Possum, hopefully the Big Guy saved you a bottle of heavenly hooch.

RIP to one towering, larger than life Drunkard. I too, grew up with a bit of hillbillish parents, Dad can really do the old marathon sessions. George was the soundtrack for alot of these back mountain booze ups with friends an neighbors from all over the mountain stopping by.

Great call on the George and Ray duet peetie44.

...organist for The Doors and a good guy. We shared a beer or two together, over the years.

Quite jealous of your beer-sharing.

Cheers to him, and the Doors on repeat for the night.
