My musical tradition is to play every bit of music I own from a musical artist when they pass away.
When Marc Sandman died I played all Morphine's records back to back.
When Curtis Mayfield died I did the same thing.
I have been doing this for about 12 years now.
I dread the day any SY member dies, not only because I will terribly miss them and what they do, but because I will have to take a week off of work to listen to everything I own by them, back to back.
Bobby Blue Bland passed away just this weekend. I have a blues comp on LP with him in it and an old Chess LP of Bobby Bland and I will listen to those tonight.
It is a tribute on my part for the hours of enjoyment they give me.
