what a shock. I didn't know Bucky personally but he had recently accepted my friend request on facebook and he was an avid poster.
I'm told he suffered a stroke and a heart attack... how very sad and unexpected.
condolences to his family and friends. I really loved his playing... glad I was able to tell him so.

I’m shocked , I was just looking at a concert poster I had Bucky sign when he was with Steve Forbert at the Village underground in NYC.
His son is really making a big impact in music.
This is so sad, loved his playing!

Damn... Long, long, complicated history with Bucky, going back 45 years or so, with a lot of interesting stories.
I'm in shock; there's been way too much bad news in the past few months already.
Hope it was quick and painless. RIP my old friend... |

Sorry to hear. We were on an album together recorded in the early 90s (Steven Keene "No Alternative")and he recently accepted my Facebook request, too. He will be missed.

| Quite a loss, I pray for his family. A few years ago I also discovered his son Rayland, who is quite a talented singer/songwriter himself. RIP. |
