Losing musician friends is indescribably sad. After a week of having to adjust to the fact that one more member of our family is gone, it is definitely time to look at something positive.
Here's something: Juan, you did good a couple of weeks ago.
Juan Ortega is another of Santa Fe's long-time musicians. Along with Mike Montiel, Bobby Glenn, and a small assist from a local sax player, you guys did good at the Tin Star Acoustic Jam last January 19.
I went and dug up a copy of the Maverick's original The Loosing Side of Me, and compared it to the version Juan led a couple of weeks ago.
Juan, your version holds up well to the original. And yours was a jam with four guys, two of whom did not know the song. Not too shabby, buddy. Hope to see you next Monday.
