He actually passed away on May 2nd but I've been so caught up with Uni exams that I didn't find out until today.

I sent Jenny a condolence letter but that's all I could think of doing. I watched a few of his performances on youtube and Jenny was right, her dad is beast on the harmonica.

R.I.P.

Is it wrong of me to hope that it draws some great songs out of Jenny?

Wow, sad for Jenny.

I had NO idea he had such a reputation as a harp player. I knew they had a 'Vegas Act' but it seems he was the real deal.

This changes my perception of her. But it's difficult to say how.

The turning of the wheel is a game changer for sure. I wish her the best.

That really sucks. We should all go listen to The Next Messiah in honor of him (that song is about him right?)

I saw on her facebook fan page that people were posting condolences for her Dad a couple weeks ago. I tried to google search and confirm if he had actually passed away, but I couldn't find anything. Sad to hear that it is true. My thoughts and love are with you, Jenny.

That's fucking sad. I'm glad he and Jenny made a connection before he passed.
