Terry thanks for posting that. The ending of an era for sure. Watching that made me realize that the only person in the video still living is Willie Cantu the drummer. Then again I don't know for sure, Willie might have passed on as well as I haven't heard anything about him in many years....JH in Va.

Willie is alive and well in Hendersonville.
He came over to Norway in January to give a drum clinique and to play at a Buck Owens Tribute Show in Bergen. And Willie still plays every one of those trademark Buckaroo rhythms, the hi hat bolero pattern on "Buckaroo," the roll on "My Heart skips a Beat," the syncopations on "Love`s gonna live here."
We played, reminisced about his days as a Buckaroo, and of course, Tom Brumley was often mentioned. As a matter of fact, we called Tom, and the two Buckaroos got to have one last chat together. Then, when Willie returned to the States - Monday - Tom suffered his heart attack.
