I used to listen to 'Funky Funk' by John Hines on an old tape recorded from a radio station when I worked in Georgia. I even had an old record "Can't Think of Nothing" even though I had no record player and would ask friends to play it. Today I read a story that when he died he apparently had his feet cut off to fit in coffin without knowledge of his wife:

Strange hearing this story now. It is even stranger since he dropped out of site like a lot of musicians and did not even know he died and I clicked the article without knowing about who the article was about.

 

Even found some of the songs on a website even (Soul Detective) but haven't got them to play yet. I have the week off so I have some time for some reflection.
