[quote"Yahoo News"]Bluegrass guitarist Tony Rice, who was recognized as one of the all-time greats of the genre, has died. He was 69 and passed suddenly on December 25, his former label Rounder Records noted.[/quote]
I met Tony in the 80s through my friend Peter Rowan. I suggested that Peter record with Tony in 2000, and in 2004 they released You were there for me. Shortly after that, Tony came down with dysphonia and was unable to sing anymore.
I'm pissed that the MSM has no mention of his death.
RIP Tony Rice

RIP Tony Rice
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
