Buddy Miles dead at 60. Be sure to click on the "listen now" link to hear more from the actual broadcast.

That's two peeps you have mentioned who passed that I know nothing about. Thanks for the intro even post mortem.

:(

Rest in peace Mr. Miles.

Outside my range of acquaintance.

Buddy may have seemed a bit player in rock history, based on his sparse chart success, but he did make some waves circa 1968-71. He played with Jimi Hendrix only once (that was recorded anyway), but the "Band of Gypsys" album, recorded live on New Year's Eve of 1969 (if memory serves) captured arguably Hendrix's finest live show ever, & Buddy played a perfect counterpoint to him on "Machine Gun". I still smile at the fact that more people heard his voice as a California Raisin than ever listened to one his records.

I liked the California Raisin's.
