FWIW--I do find the absence of ANY original members (like Bob, or Alex) a bit troublesome. Yeah; I know many groups, bands, ensembles have continued the "tradition" of their namesakes, but the line between a "tribute" group, and a group has certainly been blurred. This is not to say current performers/musicians are not up to the standards or tasks of their progenitors...but...it AIN'T THE SAME! But then again, what on God's green earth stays the "same" for 45 or 50 years? Not much that I can think of.
So, Bobby, how's it going for you of late? I applaud the good works with the Parkinson's Foundation. Are you and Meri doing O.K. with things? (not that I personally could do much in any case). Blessings on your work--I've lost more than a few to advanced Parkinsons. A brutal disease.
