A nice tribute to my favorite living musician, the last man standing.

Yes, it was a fantastic show. Buddy played an hour of his songs with Emmylou and Regina McCrary joining in. Just guitar, cello, and upright bass.  Steve was in top form and did about an hour solo, before bringing Emmylou, his sister Stacy, Lucind...
