@toynton It's called "The Blues White Album"

[lillian68]

Shocking! He's been with H&O for 30 years. What will they do?!

[MrBeatlesCovers]

Daryl Hall has been working on a solo album that T-Bone was playing on. He commented that he doesn't know how he's going to finish the album without him, because T-Bone has always been there.

Daryl's house won't be the same without you T-Bone.

I had the honor of meeting T-Bone on the streets of Boston last year. He was playing at the Orpheum with Daryl and John. He was the lovliest individual, thanked me for coming to the show... Turns out we had some similar acquaintances in VT. I loved T-Bone. Such an incredible talent. I know how saddened I am by this loss, I can only imagine how those who really knew him must be feeling. "The greater you loved, the greater your grief.." Rest well T-Bone, you will never be forgotten.

I like his version of the Beatle tune. I think Ringo and the boys would like it also.

So glad to hear this. Hadn't heard him sing...despite all the live shows I had the privilege to attend when he played with Billy Vera in 1976-77

Daryl called him the "ampersand' in Hall & Oates. It's gonna be strange without him.
