Remembering yet another music legend. Lonnie Brooks 1933-2017

Sadly we received the news of the passing of another legend. The great Chicago Bluesman Lonnie Brooks.  I was lucky enough to see him at the Famous Dave's Blues Fest some years ago. I wanted to see as many of these guys a possible as there weren't many left at the time. Many of them have since passed on including Mojo Buford, Pinetop and Willie Smith. It is always important to remember these guys while they are alive and after they have gone. They are the founders of popular music.
