Cavemanrich - just doing some googling re:Buddy Red Bow. I knew he had passed away young (44) due to cirrhosis of the liver. But never knew he was born just a year younger than I am.
I am thinking he expected it - at least two of his songs " Spirit World," and "Thunderbird," were about dying and making the journey to be with ancestors. They are both sweet and sad. How I wish he had chosen a different path so he would still be with us. Rest in Peace Buddy.
