With a heavy heart I must post that I just found out a piano hero of mine has left us.

I'm with you on this one brother musician Skip. He's been a New Orleans special for years and I'm proud to say with Fats Domino, we knew him well. May they both R.I.P,Dr. John & Mr.Fats Domino.......<> SwampWater Fox = Leo J Eiffert,Jr from the 9th ward..... Crying or Very sad

Hate to hear. I've enjoyed a lot of Mac's music over the years. True stylist. New Orleans icon.
