JSngry Posted March 12, 2020 Report Posted March 12, 2020 We rely on each other. Ah ha. On 3/12/2020 at 10:25 AM, Hardbopjazz said: Singer and bassist Kenny Rogers has past last night at 82. I can’t seem to find any articles confirming this, but it was mentioned during a gig at Lincoln Center last night and a moment of silence for him, McCoy Tyner and Jimmy Heath was observed. Expand Ok, were you at this gig, physically or virtually? Or was this information provided to you from somebody else. On 3/12/2020 at 2:52 PM, ghost of miles said: Maybe it was a different Kenny Rogers? Expand That guy was a fine, sometimes great, pitcher, but, by damn near all accounts, a total head case. Talk about somebody who needed to just drop in to see what condition his condition was in, there one is, or was, as the case may or may not turn out to be. Here's Discogs on Sax Kenny Rogers, and good luck googling him to find out if he's still alive: https://www.discogs.com/artist/754750-Kenny-Rodgers?filter_anv=1&anv=Kenneth+Rogers https://www.discogs.com/artist/754750-Kenny-Rodgers?filter_anv=1&anv=Kenny+Roger https://www.discogs.com/artist/754750-Kenny-Rodgers?filter_anv=1&anv=Kenny+Rogers Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted March 12, 2020 Report Posted March 12, 2020 What about Roy. I know Trigger passed and was stuffed, but I don't know about Roy or Dale. I am hoping for the best. DUH! Quote

Gheorghe Posted March 13, 2020 Report Posted March 13, 2020 well I was the first here on the track who mentioned the Saxophonist Kenny Rodgers ….. but not because I don´t believe, "your" singer and Bassist Kenny Rogders is still alive . Quote

JSngry Posted March 13, 2020 Report Posted March 13, 2020 I think Roy & Dale must've had a whale of a tale... Quote
bertrand Posted March 21, 2020 Report Posted March 21, 2020 So now Kenny Rogers the country singer passed away at 81. The guy who did The Gambler. Just happened today. Who was this thread about? I am pretty sure the sax player who recorded with Lee Morgan died a while ago. Who was the person memorialized at Lincoln Center two weeks ago? Quote
miles65 Posted March 21, 2020 Report Posted March 21, 2020 The death of Kenny Rogers the country singer (81) is now confirmed on the NOS (dutch public broadcaster) site. Also on the site of the Guardian newspaper. Quote
sidewinder Posted March 21, 2020 Report Posted March 21, 2020 Also mentioned on the radio news over here. I’d forgotten all of those big hits he’d had back in the day, duets with Dolly Parton etc. Quote

Hardbopjazz Posted March 21, 2020 Author Report Posted March 21, 2020 I started this thread about the county singer. I guess Lincoln Center has a vision into the future when it was announced. Quote
