Beloved Austin Musician Jimmy LaFave Dead at 61

 By Annie Reuter May 23, 2017 3:06 PM


Austin-based musician Jimmy LaFave died on Monday, May 22, after a year-long battle with cancer. He was 61.

The Austin-American Statesman reports that the Oklahoma native moved to Texas in the 1980s. He remained performing up until days before his death. His nephew, Jesse LaFave, confirmed the news of his passing at his home Monday evening. He was surrounded by family and loved ones.

Tom T. Hall; who has written and performed a slew of great songs.

Also, wrote the famed "Harper Valley PTA" song.

Paul Weller of the Jam, major group to many.

Quote
2006 – Legendary songwriting and producing team Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, Kinks frontman Ray Davies, electro-rock outfit New Order and veteran pop siblings the Bee Gees are among the honorees at the 51st Ivor Novello Awards for songwriters.
http://www.thisdayinrock.com/index.php/general/2006-legendary-songwriting-and-producing-team-ke/
Gamble and Huff wrote some great songs, are to be reckoned with such as this one:

Leslie Uggams, Jessi Colter,

And I'm sure other talented folks, the band Burma Shave? I've heard of them.

Hal David who co-wrote with Burt Bachrach including songs like "Raindrops keep falling on my head", "I say a little prayer", etc.

Oh, I was going to post a Rihanna video for the "experts" on modern music but I can't be sure there is nothing wrong and unseemly with such.

What a song and it couldn't be done without Jeanie C. Riley's singing style, the slide guitars and all.

My 'Viking Hunter' High Adventure Alternate History Series is FREE, ALL 3 volumes, at most ebook retailers including Ibooks, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and more.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.

It sounds like Waylon Jennings lived hard, I don't know personally, he died in 2002; he suffered from diabetes. His wife was Jesse Colter, since then, Jesse had a release of music based on the Psalms which has received positive reviews.

"Shakin' All Over", I heard about the "Guess Who" version, of course, that was before the Guess Who.

It is 's Birthday.  I'll take even early Hank Williams Jr. music generally; though some of his later songs merit a mention. This song is used in Kelly's Heroes but I'm not sure if the movie version was sung by him.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o80c2xgX3QA

And just for a twofer, another song in Kelly's Heroes.

More birthdays, Levon Helm's of the Band.

Art Sharp; Nashville Teens

Since becoming a standard a number of bands sing.

Birthdays also:

Mick Ronson, David Bowie's sidekick in the Spiders from Mars struck down by cancer at an early age. Also, the keyboardist Verden Allen of Mott the Hoople, so two musicians with connections to that band along with others.

Not sure what you mean. The group was formed in Winnipeg, Canada in 1963...Allan "Chad Allan" Kobel, Randy Bachman, Garry Peterson, Bob Ashley & Jim Kale. They recorded as The Reflections and Chad Allan & The Expressions. In 1966, Burton Cummings replaced Ashley & Allan left shortly thereafter. Shakin' All Over was in 1965. Their bigger hits started with These Eyes & Laughing in 1969.

It's pre-Guess Who, they would play that in concert too. I think that's clear, it's even written on that video "Guess Who?".
