From Jack's web site:

Our national treasure Ramblin' Jack Elliott is currently facing a
triple by pass heart surgery. There are a lot of alternative methods
he is exploring as well - so stay tuned. However, we had to cancel
our UK/Ireland/Norway tour because of this health news. If you'd like
to send him cards, good wishes and such please send to his manager
and she will make sure he gets them all. Jack does not do e mail - so
please do not e mail but you are welcome to send good wishes, prayers
and light to: Ramblin' Jack Elliott co Gaynell Rogers P.O. Box 1566
Nevada City, Ca. 95959

As I told Lou Killen, this is the body piercing of our generation. Best wishes to Jack for a full recovery.

I hope Jack bounces back quickly, he really is a national treasure.

Oh No! First Mike Seeger, then Mary Travers and now Ramblin Jack is needing to clear the decks with his maker. I'm sure that 'catters around the globe will be wrapping up the good wishes prayers and light and winging them RJ's way. Mine are already on their way.

Makes the words of my GP this morning a little more salient: BP and weight need to go down and a little more exercise needs to happen. If I can do that then hopefully I can bypass any triples that happen to be lurking around out there in the future looking for an unwary victim.

Cheers,

Andrez
