FAMOUS: The Buzzy Linhart Story

[MarkLAsche]

I played with Buzzy in the mid 80's when he was in the Twin Cities. He was the semi-regular front-man and guest in the band I was in at the time. He was truly one of a kind, and would set the bandstand on fire with blood 'n' guts renditions of old tunes like "Money".

It was an honor to know him.

Have some records and can make cds

I lost my album; The time to live is now in a house fire in Ft. Lauderdale. I want a copy because no one knows that wonderful song, I've begged for D.J's to play on radio for decades, the dumbies didn't know it existed nor mr. Linheart in general. I wish I could find every single one of them and email this youtube to them! I have loved your stuff since we were both quite young! hugs dude.

He is still the same Buzzy I always knew over the years, his looks may change but he sure doesn't! He is still the funniest, friendliest Musician I have ever met! I love you Buzzy!

Buzzy...you be da man! saw you many times..the Pussy cats can go far @ "My Fathers Place" in Roslyn NY was one, and you gave me some guitar picks with that emblem...still have one and remember you fondly...Thanks for giving us a different view on music...

[wkuakua]

@73CLAMDIGGER I still have my "Pussy Cats Can Go Far" balloon! I love you Buzzy!

My favorite 2 Buzzy songs were Resurrection Rag and I Might be Wrong But I Say What I mean. Anyone know where I can get a copy of these?

[threepancakes]

What ever happened to Peter Ponzel, Luther Rix, Danny Trifan?

[zappaphile0]

Thanks, Buzzy, for feeling good and helping me do the same, whether we were young and skinny or like now

[plgtrman51]

I used to have all of Buzzy's Albums and they got lost somehow. Would like to know if I can get any copies of them on CD or Vinyl. Where is Buzzy now? This is the time for his music.

[ludovica36]

Pat, do you have a complete copy of this documentary? I am really desperate to see it

[Lechip007]

We used to go see Buzzy back in the 70's at the London Ale House in Wildwood NJ. those were great shows.

[PrettyBettySue]

Ha ha I wish I had all of my stolen albums back. Buzzy was one of em! The good old days! I saw him in Baltimore in 1973

[VenusGrnys]

How cool was Buzzy??? Nobody like him.....

[griffybutt]

Move on up!

[VenusGrnys]

I saw Buzzy way back in the mid to late 70's at a little place in a suburb of Philadelphia. It was a fabulous show...and now, nobody hardly remembers who he was. I enjoyed his live performance and had some of his albums...which got stolen in the late '80's....what a bummer.

Thanks for posting this...much appreciated.

;o)

He sure looks different now. He and I went through the navy school of music, early sixties. He was the funniest guy I've ever known. Buzzy didn't take well to the navy. I was there when he put his fist through a mirror, cut his hand all up. And then suddenly he was gone. It wasn't till several years later that I saw he'd gained some notoriety. There he was on the cover of the L.A. Free Press. A one-of-a-kind was my old friend Buzzy. I'm proud to have known him and of course wish him well always.

[ludovica36]

I love Buzzy SOOOO Much!

[grungejazz]

He lives in Berkeley now been at his place a few times to jam. Boxes everywhere. The times I delt with him he was very kind guy!

[ViglioneJoe]

Buzzy's a very talented man. "Famous" has some good moments but doesn't bring the entire story home. Buzzy deserves a more in-depth and current documentary, especially with Bette Midler playing "Friends" at her new Vegas show

[crockett12]

"If Happiness means fulfillment, if destiny's entwined, I'm still searching for a Heaven, that I once believed was mine....." Miss ya buzzy.

[rapidtimer]

Awesome! I used to play with Buzzy years back and boy did I have some fun. Miss you in Jersey Buzzy. I might post some live video I've got of Buzzy doing a tune he wrote called "W-2" with me. Verry cool and funny tune. Watch for it.

[italianray69]

Where in Jersey? Jersey City here. Saw The Buz man at Kenny's Castaways and St. Peter's. Talked with him last in '77 before a gig on Staten Island. It was snowing and I missed the show; last time I spoke with him, too. Wish I had a copy of his "IS MUSIC" lp.

Wore mine out, man.

[JJRocker9]

Buzzy IS great. Will this film ever come out on DVD or get a release anywhere?

[llachow]

Love you Buzzy!

[ivycompton]

I love you Buzzy! Talk about a Morning! Yellow Cab! He was great! Fantastic, free singer, wonderful songwriter (You Got to Have Friends!). Go Buzz!!!
