robertoart Posted April 15 Report Share Posted April 15 I saw Calvin Keys in an intimate club setting in San Francisco this last October. An unforgettable experience to see one of the true masters of the music. Only a small handful of people in the club. His playing at 80yrs old was perfection. I am so saddened to hear of his passing.

BFrank Posted April 16 Report Share Posted April 16 It's very sad. He was scheduled to perform on Sunday at a great oceanside venue down the coast (from SF), and I was thinking of going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted April 16 Report Share Posted April 16 This is sad news. My only exposure to him was the RSD reissue of his that was put out a couple of years ago. I will give it a spin later today - RIP and particularly sad considering he was still musically very active. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
