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.

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!

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.

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!

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?

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

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.
