People Who Died

I always felt bad about not having a decent compilation by Vern Gosdin who passed away last week. But that's not my fault, because there isn't one, but his recent death might remedy that. Anyway, Gosdin was nicknamed "The Voice" in County circles, and his voice, if not his material, could rival his oft-compared George Jones. Definitely one for rediscovery.
Stephen Bruton was something of an Americana legend. KPIG often played his stuff, but he's best known as a producer, songwriter, session player for a whole bunch of people. He's another artists who's solo recordings are worth checking out. Bruton also passed away last week.
