The man has been around.  Became a regular here in Austin at this blues bar on 6th.  Was 97 and still got up and jammed every week!

Now he's playing those great ivories in the sky.

"We are all intoxicated. We were born into an insane asylum, a world crazy-making. We believe what we see and hear. The real myth is the myth of sanity, of rationality: it's a disease that is eating away at the earth. All the poisons flow from our denial. We deny madness, we forget our crimes, we dismember the corpse, we imprison our children. We need poison to poison the poison, to remember the sacred nature of intoxication, the green body of the young god." ~ Dale Pendell

I don't know if I ever heard anything from him. Amazing he was not only performing still, but still RECORDING music in his late 90s!

He had a damn good run and played his heart out right to the very end. RIP Pinetop
