Peter,
I knew Gene quite well also. He was a very generous man and had a terrific sense of humor. I wrote an article about him in Percussive Arts Society journal years ago. Let me know if I can help.

Hi Phil I am very interested that you new Gene well and spent time with him in his Yonkers home. I am collecting material - photos, recordings, stories etc to write a definitive book on the life of Gene. I was a professional drummer and Gene was a massive influence in my life. My email is entcorp@aol.com - would love to hear from you Kindest regards Peter (Brightman)
