Let us remember Harry Chapin on his birthday, Dec 7. What an incredible legacy he left us and a great team who carry it forward today! "When in doubt, do something" - Harry Chapin

They called Harry Chapin a troubadour, but he was more of a novelist. He wore short, poignant, biographical novels and set them to music. Novels about taxi drivers who have chance encounters with their first loves and choose not to go home again. Novels about fathers and children who start out getti...

Rest well Denny Laine of the Moody Blues and Wings - thank you for your legacy of music.

My darling husband passed away peacefully early this morning. I was at his bedside, holding his hand as I played his favorite Christmas songs for him. He’s been singing Christmas songs the past few weeks and I continued to play Christmas songs while he’s been in ICU on a ventilator this past week.

He and I both believed he would overcome his health setbacks and return to the rehabilitation center and eventually home. Unfortunately, his lung disease, Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD), is unpredictable and aggressive; each infection weakened and damaged his lungs. He fought everyday. He was so strong and brave, never complained.
All he wanted was to be home with me and his pet kitty, Charley, playing his gypsy guitar.

Denny was so very thankful to all of you who sent him so much love, support and the many kind words during these past few months of his health crisis-it brought him to tears.

I thank you all for sending both of us love and support. It was my absolute honor and privilege to not only be his wife, but to care for him during his illness and vulnerability.

Thank you to Dennys surgeons, doctors, specialists, physical therapists and nurses at Naples Hospital for working so hard to help him. Thank you for your compassion and support for me during these past several emotional months.

My world will never be the same. Denny was an amazingly wonderful person, so loving and sweet to me. He made my days colorful, fun and full of life-just like him.
Thank you sweetie for loving me, for all the laughter, friendship, fun and for asking me to be your wife. I will love you forever ❤️

Please give Denny’s friends and family the time and privacy needed as we grieve our loss. 💔

Much love,
Elizabeth Hines

❤️

Happy birthday all week to Joe Walsh of The Eagles! Hope you are having grand celebrations!

Happy 76 rotations of the Earth to me! My biggest gifts are my family, my friends, the music we make along the way and the new friends and veterans we get to serve each year through VetsAid. Here’s a snap from my set at last week’s VetsAid in San Diego (more recaps to come!). If you can - and only if you can - think about celebrating my birthday with a donation to VetsAid this year. If you can’t, raise a glass with me of whatever you’re drinking (a Coke Zero for me) to another great year. Xoxo

The Doobie Brothers have released a brand new single “Lahaina” along with a music video to provide aid and support to Maui amidst the fires that have devastated the community. The
star-studded “Lahaina,” featuring Mick Fleetwood, Jake Shimabukuro, and Henry Kapono, is the
group’s first release since their 2021 album Liberté, and will serve as a beacon of hope to the victims and a commemoration to the town that has been ravaged by the disaster. Proceeds from the writing of the song will go to the fundraising efforts on behalf of the People’s Fund of Maui and The Doobie Brothers will also be donating $100,000 to the organization which provides direct financial assistance to over 8,000 Maui community members displaced from the devastating fires in Lahaina and Kula.

Our friend Dusty Street over at SiriusXM Classic Vinyl has passed -- rest well Dusty and thank you for all your love of music.

We are all so sad that our Dusty Street has passed away, but her smart, authentic, salty-but-charming comments, on the air and off, remain with us. Greg Roberson offers a lovely tribute on both the Deep Tracks page and this one.

Here is something special Dusty worked on very recently: a MGM-Plus documentary called San Francisco Sounds: A place in Time. A photo of her on the set…and the trailer:
