I was sad to hear of Andy's death this morning on the Roots show, which can be heard on the net weekdays from 9 to 11 am, eastern time, on WVUD.org   Same station also has REAL country, bluegrass, and old-timey on Saturdays from 10 am to 2 pm. And every year on Jan 1, the anniversary of Hank Williams' death, they have an all-Hank show, this year I think from 9 to noon, (that's this coming Friday)!

But back to memories of Andy... Once, when my late father was visiting me in Philly, I took him to see Silly Wizard at the Cherry Tree Music Club. My family strongly identified with their Irish heritage. Irish music was what he believed he was hearing, and he LOVED it!

RIP, Andy...
