Sd, bad, bad news but thanks for posting nonetheless.

John was my absolute favorite among many, many blues favorites. In fact, this week he has dominated my choices in music -- I think I've spinned him every day. Today I listened to "Boom Boom", "Mr. Lucky" and "Hooker and Heat" (with Canned Heat). Fell asleep last night to the Rykodisc compilation "The Ultimate Collection".

Rest assured, he will boogie woogie with the angels.

Maybe we should all partake in "whisky and women" as a tribute. As if we don't anyway.
