It's your friendly neighborhood "Digital Drummer" again
I bring sad news this afternoon to my old school 70's music fans. The legendary drummer and guitarist Buddy Miles died last night in Austin, Texas.
My personal memories of Buddy Miles goes back to the 70's in Hawaii, where I saw Buddy Miles and Carlos Santana for the first time inside of Diamond Head Creator at the historic new years day Sunshine Festival.
This once in a life time jam was turned into the Carlos Santana & Buddy Miles Live album. The interior gatefold of this double album contains a panorama of the crowd inside the crater, taken from behind Buddy's drum kit.
I received this sad news today off of one of my favorite music based Yahoogroups Luv4self_Network (see below) Buddy will never be forgotten and I'll spend the rest of the day listening to Then Changes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JiIFNNQsoY).
