We were Live with RIchard TBear. As his friend Mike FInnigan might say, what a life! We talked Belushi, his Joe Cocker, The Blues Brothers, SNL, getting blasted, Wired, Woodward, that fatal night, getting blacklisted... RIchie Havens starting him off, Allee Willis (*weeps*) and writing for Cher, getting sober, John Prine, Steve Goodman, oh hell yeah! Opening for The J Geils Band and getting balled, not in the good way, turning it around, The Doobie Brothers, Edgar Winter, the Fillmore East, Stephen Stills, Loren Gold, Alvino Bennett, Snuffy Walden, producer Tony Braunagel, who stopped by and shared a story about TBear's upcoming album, Fresh Bear Tracks, soon to be released, Baron Marx, of RCA, also on hand, related to the Marx Brothers, with the eyebrows to prove it, RIchard's beloved Nina and all she inspired... TBear played us in with his hit, Sunshine Hotel, and took us out with I'm betting another (I haven't stopped singing it), from his upcoming LP, Love to be Lonely, written with loving guidance from his Nina. This show is dedicated to her memory, and Evelyn Turk, her mother, who passed this very day. May the music soothe and heal TBear's tender, talented, soul.
