RIP Butch!

Sad News. ".... the man considered by Rolling Stone magazine as one of the top 10 drummers in rock history ..."
I'll remember him by this quote rather than the rest of the story.

My dad played in a band with him called "The Echos" sometime before the Allman Brothers. Butch reached out to my dad recently to do some playing and singing. My dad said he was in pretty good shape and pretty shaken up about it. His nephew Derek lives in town.
