rsvman2 Par4QC This is sad. Dude was THE man when it comes to forged irons. Made some of the most beautiful clubs ever.

He was my favorite from the tv show Cheers. It sounds like he was pretty much the same guy in real life as he was in Cheers.
johnnydoom Spuzz I didn't watch the show much because it always felt scripted, but I did find Phil and the family to be entertaining. I know he was a religious fellow and pray that he is enjoying the eternal life he was seeking after the past couple years of suffering.
[deleted] Rick Derringer. I saw him live once. Oddly enough he was supporting Cindy Lauper. I think Eddie Money was the opener.

Besides being the lead dude in the McCoys (Hang on Sloopy 1965) he was a prominent record producer. Hooked up with Johnny and Edgar Winter for his own mastery and also played on many records with other well-known artists. Google him. He was well connected. RIP.
mulegolf sdandrea1 [deleted] Rick Derringer. I saw him live once. He has a place in our heart. "Hang on Sloopy" was one of my wife's favorite songs from the 60's and "Rock and Roll Hoochie Coo" was the first song my wife and I danced to on our first date. At the time I didn't know he was the lead singer on "Hang on Sloopy" as well.

johnnydoom I wasn't entertained by MASH or Peter, Paul, and Mary. But I know plenty of people found joy in what they did, and I hope they had great joy bringing entertainment to others. Rest in Peace.
johnnydoom Walterjn I didn’t hate the show, I just found it more serious than I like comedy to be. The only characters that appealed to me were Klinger and Potter. The only scene I actually recall now was Klinger trying to escape via hang glider.
