RIP Bobby Hebb: Music Legend Passes Away

I am proud to say that Bobby Hebb was a friend of mine and saddened when I heard that he recently died. Bobby was one of the nicest and certainly one of the sharpest men I've ever known. I met him as a teenager, he lived above the cafe I worked at and over the years we had some great conversations about music, life, women, all with some the best home-spun charm you've ever heard.



I'll never forget my 21st birthday - Bobby comes bouncing down his stairs picking on a very nice Fender acoustic guitar. He says to me: "Let's hear it" as he hands me the guitar. I play a bit and told him how sweet a guitar it was, and if I could borrow it sometime. Bobby replies: "borrow? man, that's your guitar, happy birthday!"






Bobby...thank you for times I'll never forget!
