Perhaps one of the most genuine compliments that a musician can be paid is that they were authentic. Gary was authentic and will be missed my me. RIP
Gary Rossington RIP
One of my favorite Southern R&R Les Paul players.
The guy survives a plane crash, but unfortunately has left for the big stage too early-71.
