GA Russell Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 RIP. I had a copy of Sunny when it was out in '66, and I still enjoy hearing it on the radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenLowe Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 he was a jazz fan - used to come into Sandy's Jazz Revival in Beverly in the middle '70s (I think I remember him coming to see Chet Baker). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Great song, Sunny, not sure what he else did; the first thing I think when I hear his name is that song. He made a mark so what more can you ask. RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA Russell Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 The obit says that Hebb co-wrote the Lou Rawls hit A Natural Man with Sandy Baron. I remember a stand-up comic by that name from that time. Was that the same person? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 You talk about a life...playing in Roy Acuff's live band in the early 1950s...this was no ordinary journey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
