What happened to him.Seen him for the first time tonight.What a great talent

[okieroadhunter]

WFT? Did you dub a studio track over the video? The sound and video aren't even close.

[type3secretion]

@okieroadhunter No, it's live, but got unsynched along with about 25% of my videos when YouTUbe did a recompression of files. I have been fixing the "broken" ones slowly. I didn't know this one had been hit as well.

S'EVERYBODY FEELIN' GOOD TONIGHT?

[jc07874]

yeah I think It is on the album where he sings on almost every track. "Watching my life go by".. some other interesting work there as well.

[Pullmanator]

anyone know what kind of guitar he played on a regualr bases or what company made him that guitar harp thing?

[bigbadbob58]

When I saw him in 1988 or 89, he was playing a Martin D____ something. It was very old and sounded outstanding. I think Rick said it was a D28 (1920's vintage). Rick's mom rented Michael an apartment and knew Michael fairly well.

Some performers transcend the mere practice of their art. He, indded, was one.

[Abyssery]
