Thoughts are with you kmurray, and that word "remission" is still troubling in this household. Usually results in several nights of insomnia each week.
Best wishes

Thanks for the kind words, all.

WEST SIDE MUSIC LEGEND DIES AFTER CANCER FIGHT

Rocky Morales, West Side tenor sax legend, died Wednesday afternoon at University Hospital. He had cancer.

Morales, trumpeter Charlie McBirney and another saxophonist, Louis Bustos, began playing together in the 1960s. Another San Antonian, performer Doug Sahm, gave them the name the West Side Horns when they joined his band.

After years of playing nightclubs, the Horns released their first album -- "San Quilmas" -- in 2002.

Services are pending.

Arthur Lee RIP

LOVE were an amazing band - I LOVE Forever Changes, but the album Four Sail is also an absolute classic. I hope they make a film about his life - he deserves to become a musical legend.
